      Pros

      Great people, great company, great health insurance benefits! I really love REI, they treat their employees with respect and live true to their core values and mission statement. They do work in the community to support their values. Quality employees, fun to work with. Great perks, and work life balance! Truly a great company!

      Cons

      They offer competitive wages, however, it's still retail. Hard to live on retail wages. Management is only full-time positions. Challenging to get enough hours.

      Pros

      The people and the culture are wonderful. The potential paid days off are great. Overall REI is a fun and positive environment to work in.

      Cons

      Working more hours than stated available. With my experience many employees indicate a max number of hours they want to work, however that is often ignored.

      Pros

      Got reasonable amounts of hours, great teammates at the store. Good solid amounts of training, comfortable environment

      Cons

      Hard pushing on selling memberships, can be the difference between them keeping you or not, even though in training they state that it doesn't have that big of an influence on your position
