Pros

fun to sell boats and meet new people

Cons

extremely incompetent management, no positive feedback whatsoever, in-fighting between mgrs, huge staff and mgmnt turnover ( this location went through 3 salespeople, 3 mechanics, 2 business assistants, 2 business managers and a general manager in the time that I was there. Just unbelievable! I had been in business for many years previous to this experience and have never been involved with such an unprofessional organization in my working life. The support from the Head Office and Human Resources in particular was abysmal.

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.
