Pros

Easy place to work for, friendly staff, and understanding management all make REI - especially as either a part time or full time employee - well worth it. Solid benefits as well.

Cons

Long hours, concrete floors, inconsistent days and hours (unless you're full-time) can make it a little hard to work around. Most convenient for college students or fresh graduates (in my opinion).
