Pros

There are very few Pros for this company other then maybe the discounts but even then you are constantly reminded on the inability of the people on the top of the pole are at running this company!!! There are a lot of good people that work for this company and at one point in time many years ago this company was more like a family and everyone had a good time.

Cons

The biggest downsides of the this company is the pay, the people in charge of running this company, and the conditions of some of the facilities of a multimillion dollar company. There are communication problems from top to bottom and a change in some of the policies need to be done. I know that recognition of employees is far and in between and very few times is an advancement given out. The company would rather bring in someone from the outside instead of hiring from within. In the department that I work in there is a huge turnover and that makes it a huge challenge from one year to the next.

Pros

Bass Pro Shops has a strong team culture, and the people are one of the best parts of working here. I've had the opportunity to work with talented and supportive coworkers who are willing to collaborate and help each other succeed. The company also offers exposure to large-scale marketing initiatives and provides opportunities to work on a variety of projects across multiple channels and business areas.

Cons

The compensation and benefits package could be more competitive, especially when compared to similar marketing roles in the industry. Project timelines are often extremely aggressive, leaving little room for unexpected challenges and creating a fast-paced, high-pressure environment. While the work can be rewarding, the combination of tight deadlines and limited resources can make it difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance at times.
