Pros

The benefits are great, especially at full time. You can't beat them, and you will have fun with the people you work with. Everyone has their own personality, but the store has a sense of community, as everyone seems to be satisfied with working here everyday. You have opportunity to grow, and fast, if you put the time and work in to help make the store successful. They work with you to balance out your work/life schedule, and are open to you having fun outside of work when you get the chance(vacation isn't frowned upon). I mean, you get free ski & rafting trips, which is awesome.

Cons

Pay isn't the best, but you can move up fast and the benefits make up for the pay. You won't struggle while working here.
