Pros

We treat our hourly outfitters amazing. The daily perks and special things that the company does to motivate employees is unlike anything else in retail. Cookouts, give a ways, incentives for making metrics, it is like giving them a bonus every week.

Cons

The senior management team in some of the stores do not communicate very will with the middle managementn and staff. The company is going thru a culture change to make these roles more leadership orientated and less task managing - where there is currently a massive breakdown.

Pros

If you are into guns, fishing, hunting your employee discount may help.

Cons

There are necessary upgrades to their computer system (crashes, runs slow) which when busy and dealing with impatient customers is not fun. They spend money elsewhere on unnecessary items.

Pros

I had an outstanding Manager, someone who is easy to approach and always willing to help if need be. If you have a passion for the outdoors you will get along with, swap hunting/fishing tails, and overall enjoy working with the majority of employees there.

Cons

Must work during many important "openers" or hunting seasons that you may normally never miss.
