Pros

Decent enough products, decent enough prices, chance for eventual promotion to corporate sales or in the corporate office in Portland.

Cons

Terrible treatment of employees, Minimal raises (.25 a year for top sales individuals) I made 9.00/hr coming in brand bew, and someone with 1 1/2 years at the store and a top seller was making $9.13/hr, disposable workforce, little brand loyalty.

Pros

Management and co-workers were friendly and laid-back, respected one another, team work on projects. Free columbia sportswear merchandise, employee store benefits.

Cons

The management seemed to be all over the place, I kept waiting for them to get their stuff together. Irregular hours, I was assigned a lot more hours then I wanted to work, wages start off at the bottom and I had to wait 9 months to even have the chance to get a raise.
