Pros

Awesome aesthetics! For the most part its a cool to work with all the neat items they sell there. Customers are usually upbeat and happy. Cool Job for only part time work. Too many clicks to work there full time. Cool Place to work Part time.

Cons

The Corporation is so out of touch with the Store its almost laughable. The Corp has no idea what goes on in its stores. The old time Managers and employees are one big "click" that rule new hires with an iron Fist. You need to be accepted by them to have any longevity of employment. If you have a problem with anyone in the,"click", even if they are dead wrong and doing something illegal, you mind as well quit. The HR manager is nothing but a glorified Cashier with long standing, outside personal relationships with old Time Managers and Employees alike. its the buddy buddy system at Bass Pro. It is impossible for the HR manager to be the slightest bit objective. Also, HR comes as goes as they please with out really any time to listen to employees. Mostly there to keep hiring friends and family. If you have problem, it all depends on who its with to know weather or not you can have HR resolve it. IF you have an old Timer pick on you, harrass you,etc- forget it ! you'll get bullied right out of there. A couple of years back they brought in some new salaried managers which did wonders for the store morale and made it feel like a growing company with a professional Staff but little by little they chopped The new managers down and made life a nightmare until they kicked them out. A sad day for sure, the dirty tricks they pulled between HRs and hourly against these guys was insane. I will never forget.

Pros

Good discount on in house brands

Cons

Toxic management runs rampant at most stores, multiple managers keep their jobs after saying racist or sexist things to both employees or customers. If you’re a good worker they expect you to do the work for your coworkers who are lazy / not doing their job and if you complain you’re the problem. Pay is a joke. Annual raises are never more than $0.20 a year, sometimes as low as $0.07.
