Pros

Seem to have a good benefits package compared to most retail employment.

Cons

Very disorganized management. When an employee has genuine concerns about the level of service given to customers, it's difficult to find someone who is receptive. Bicycles go out to customers despite mechanic's red tape indicating serious service needs.

Business Outlook

Pros

Awesome perks with company discounts on gear, lift tickets, sporting events. Laid back compared to most work environments. Fun place to get involved in the community.

Cons

Management doesn't seem to know how to handle the growing company. Lack of organization makes it difficult to get things done and it feels like a start-up that is wobbly on its feet.
