      If the outdoors is in your nature, working here is not.

      Pros

      Employee merchandise discount. A lot of cool stuff, but high prices.

      Cons

      Horrible work/personal life balance. Huge turnover in retail store..........insane drama! Antiquated inventory distribution processes and systems. Aggressive growth strategy, but need to upgrade systems before.....they're putting the cart before the horse. Fully entrenched in corporate america now as they treat outfitters like numbers.............just look at the re-organization they did in first quarter 2014.

      Family-First Company, being overrun by bureaucracy as the corporation grows.

      Pros

      casual work environment, values-based personnel, strong leadership training program, results-driven productivity model

      Cons

      work-life balance is becoming a challenge, time-tracking policies have changed numerous times over the past 2 years and have become unnecessarily burdensome, the amount of red-tape needed to implement a simple change or get a project/idea off the ground has gone from mentioning it to the right person for approval and implementing, to forming a 10-person committee to review the idea for a month, investigate it's value and popularity, determine the level of effort from players who aren't even on the team (let-alone knowledgeable) to tickets, ticket, and more tickets... The bureaucracy is growing unbelievably dense.
