Pros

Discount is good if you really like BPS branded merchandise. Work environment is casual and friendly for the most part, although it seems phony most times.

Cons

Management needs to learn the day to day operations of the store. Requests are often unreasonable. Benefits are poor. Health coverage is really expensive for lousy coverage. Pay scale is unfair. Some departments start their associates at a much higher rate because of the prestige associated with the department, i.e. hunting, fishing. Raises and reviews are a joke, practically insulting.

Pros

Excellent benefit package including two weeks paid vacation and two weeks paid sick leave plus one personal day for a salaried employee.

Cons

Poor management in all departments I worked with. Man's company, where women are treated with less respect or less knowledgeable.

Pros

The flexable hours at Bass Pro were great. They were able to work with me and my hectic school schedule.

Cons

The way they do their performace reviews. I hated how they calcalculated your performance based on the time you were off of the phone. If you took too long between clocking in and getting on the phone you were docked percentage. If you were in the bathroom too long, you were docked percentage. And the only incentive they gave you for making your optium percentage was your 2 prefered days off.
