Pros

A manager said We sell expensive toys for adults. They also sell youth culture, outdoors activity, much gear, including apparel. Culture is to know products and take time to meet customers needs.

Cons

Actually, the casual friendly atmosphere is backed by intense concern with selling. Employs smart young people, and some retired ones as well, at near bottom retail prices. Low salary, some friendly people, more pressure than appears. They are somewhat an LL Bean clone, with more expensive apparel. Ll Bean customers are older, and pictured Oceanside, at a dock. REI customers are pictured hiking in mountains or on bikes, and are 20 something's...
