Pros

Flexible hours & ability to work when you need to. The managers & supervisors are nice & professional. Out of all of the stores we visited, only 3 had respectful, professional & very nice managers. One of the managers got on his knees & offered help to us! I LOVED THAT!

Cons

Nearly every store (that we did inventory for) had rude & thoughtless managers. They did not respect the counters at all. In fact, they even looked at us as if we were useless & did not even simply say, "Good morning" to us. They made their employees watch us like we were dogs, including every step that we took. Out of all the stores, Bootbarn in Slidell, La. was the worst. We were subject to a PAT DOWN before we were allowed to exit the building, in case we had stolen any items. This hurt me the most.

Pros

WIS is such a big company with a variety of roles, there's so many ways to find what fits "you." Opportunities for growth. I personally have like all of my management team, always nice and listened to their employees. When I was an inventory supervisor, I loved the traveling and experiencing new places. Higher pay than minimum wage, and typically higher than what most places offer.

Cons

Depending on the position, hours can be on the longer side. (but this can also be seen as a good thing.) Early starting times. Certain positions sometimes have a high turnover rate. While there are a lot of possibilities for growth, sometimes it can be a little difficult.

Pros

Nothing about this job had pro's.

Cons

Terrible Management. Was aware that their top performing employee was harassing many young girls (including myself) in a very explicit way and knew of this issue and did not resolve anything. The shifts are not long due ot everyone trying to count as fast as they can due to higher pay if you do count faster, but it comes with a cost. The schedules are never consistent, and you can wish your sleep schedule goodbye. You will also be using a lot of gas for this job and will sometimes have a total drive time of 4 hours and only work 2. Awful.
