Pros

Associate Discount They treat you very well as a potential higher

Cons

Benefits are not good Pay is in the lowest 25% across the board outside of upper management Very antiquated process for almost everything Departments are disconnected they do not work well with each other Associates and departments are understaffed and overworked We preach work life balance and living an outdoor lifestyle once you are here there is none PTO is 2 weeks for your first 7 years very little flexibility for work / life balance Raises are very minimal the only time often management has to leave and then are paid to return.

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.
