      Pros

      Company culture, employee discount, great products, great people who actually use the products they develop, market, and sell.

      Cons

      Salaries below market rate, especially in Seattle. Sub-par benefits. Disconnected executive leadership. High turnover in recent years due to executive leadership has eroded company culture.

      Pros

      An awesome company to work for with a goof laid back work environment and many fringe benefits like free kayak and gear rentals, bouldering wall, and work out room

      Cons

      Honestly the benefits are pretty bad. The health care plan is middle of the road (though they do put money into an Hsa account), no matching 401k, and the pay is below average even for the outdoor industry
