Pros

great employee discount. work/life balance. open door policy.

Cons

after reading other reviews about pay I want to add that I feel the company isn't honoring it's "nomads" with a livable wage. They expect loyalty, dependability and enthusiasm yet cannot pay more? They even recommend having secondary jobs admitting they do not pay livable wages. Traveling to other stores I have conversed with other company store managers and the general vibe is we do not feel truly appreciated. We feel over worked, expectations are high and we are under paid. Everyone is underpaid. Yes there is monthly bonuses, however only if you exceed your goals. How about not doing that and just paying us more? I love Earthbound however would love even more if they reevaluated their infrastructure and pay their people more. This company is stretched thin up to HQ and we are opening more and more stores. Take a breather EB, check your house and get us in order please.

Pros

Fun. easy going retail environment

Cons

The company hired me to move from one city to another 2 hours away and then closed the location they hired me to work at 5 months after hiring me. I found out later this had to have been in the works all along and it was not communicated to me that this was to be the case. I left a job I had had for 7 years to move to a new city for a fresh start only to shortly after have a piece of that start removed by a company with no compassion. They then offered me a lesser position at another location where the pay wasn't even the least bit comparable. This truly could have been a lovely position where it not for all that got in the way.
