Great if you like and know bikes

Pros

It's a great place if you're obsessed with bikes and anything bike related. If you're into one discipline of biking, you'll quickly learn about all the other disciplines.

Cons

Retail related cons like working on commission with customers who are browsing to ultimately order online.

Pros

They encourage you to ride, but that's just because they don't know what work needs to be done.

Cons

Upper management has no idea what they're doing and couldn't be bothered to show up in the office.

Pros

Good folks for the most part. Good mix of people, mostly guys but women too. At the store I work it's a pretty chill atmosphere and everybody usually works around schedules to meet everyone's needs, so long as you're not the guy that's always late at the last minute or you simply don't do your job. Even then the current managers are flexible. The work itself is on your feet most of the day. Waves off customers come in and you have to work with a lot of people who don't understand how bicycles work. Even on a basic level. It's surprising, when it shouldn't be really. Anyway you learn the tools. Everyone is supportive. Oh and everyone gets a cut of commission in the tech department. And then tech gets a small cut from the sales. So there's a base bay plus average commissions.

Cons

Personally it's too much of a drinking crowd for me, but if you like your beer and parties like most people do, then that's not a con I guess. Otherwise management from corporate headquarters can screw with shop routines. And the bikes get crowded in the back. I'm not an inspector or official, but the racks for the bikes aren't anchored.
