Pros

Love of outdoors and conservation. Like the easy lifestyle

Cons

What is up here. We had a terrible 4th quarter and they still are not doing anything about it. I am sure with the compass scores that will probably happen someone will loose their job again. Why is it that a company this large is so much in trouble with HR.

Pros

The pay is decent. In many cases, there is eventual opportunity for good benefits and promotion. And for outdoor enthusiasts, there is an employee discount, which becomes more generous the longer you work there.

Cons

Management can be petty, sneaky, and incompetent. Not in all cases, of course, but numerous times I have heard employees complain about management being sneaky, lazy, and abusive of their power.
