Pros

Everyone who works for the company has at least one thing in common, we all love bikes! At least I hope we do... Pretty good pay, if you’re motivated to get out there and talk to people. Performance based pay is a good motivator. They encourage you to learn and then sell. Plenty of PK (product knowledge) available. Promotes from within. MB encourages us to ride our bikes which is probably what brought us all to the company in the first place!

Cons

Performance based pay, but hey it could be worse. Better 401k matching and better Health Coverage plans. I’m thankful that we have the options don’t get me wrong, but they can always be improved on. It can feel a bit “fratty” to touch on one other review, but you gotta play the game because it’s either sink or swim. treading water doesn’t cut it in this company. This isn’t the little bike shop down the street, I mean it is, but this is not the shop to work at if you want to hang out with your hands in your pockets all day, be a snooty shop guy. This is RETAIL so as long as you realize that, are ok with it and have the ability to sell you will be just fine.

Pros

Good list of brands to get EP deals on. Benefits are actually competitive for the bike industry.

Cons

Consistently hire for roles without posting the job internally, After being bought by PON the company has adopted many practices to stifle employees and limit growth to maximize profits at all costs. It feels like it’s being eaten from the inside out and will soon be a shell of what it once was.
