Pros

Fun people to work with. HUGE Brand Recognition....everyone you know or talk to has a Bass Pro story. Awesome discount on purchases in the store.

Cons

The discount is the only financial bennie other than your pay and health insurance. For years the company was mostly run by HR...may have changed by now. If you love NASCAR....you'll love Bass Pro....that's where your raise and bonus are spent. Hard to give employees raises and bonuses when the dumps all that money on Tony Stewart and his team. Incredible turnover...they have had SIX IT VPs in 10 years.

Pros

Good discount on in house brands

Cons

Toxic management runs rampant at most stores, multiple managers keep their jobs after saying racist or sexist things to both employees or customers. If you’re a good worker they expect you to do the work for your coworkers who are lazy / not doing their job and if you complain you’re the problem. Pay is a joke. Annual raises are never more than $0.20 a year, sometimes as low as $0.07.
