Pros

Working among the gear you love and customers/staff who share similar interests is going to have to be it..because the rest is smoke and mirrors folks...If pay is in the equation walk now because they are not interested in paying for performance..I know many people who worked there several years and hadnt had a review let alone a pay raise...

Cons

As much as I liked the product the rest was a huge disappointment..HQ and senior management live in their own little bubble..I heard a senior manager once say " why should I pay anyone more when I can replace them from the multitude looking for jobs" Really dissappointing attitude from most of the Directors( Retail side ) and HR dept..Very elitist attitude..and down right rude...
