Secure job for non performers as long as they do what they are forced to do

Everything that could be wrong at a workplace including harassment of women at the hands of male chauvinistic leadership. HR is in bed with the idiots

Pros

Good digs, good work computer. I had enough time to pick up lunch at the gas station nearby and eat at my desk.

Cons

Above is the best I could do on good things. The employees are seen as tools, not people. I know this because I climbed the ladder quickly and got to hear the management discussions about their underlings. It's not good. I would never treat people the way they do by default. I was working 13 hour days minimum, and I only tolerated it because I don't have dependents of my own. Please, do me a favor and don't ever entertain the idea of working at REI. You can thank me over a beer sometime.

Bad management and stressful life

Pros

You do get chance to learn new things in first few months of your tenure at REI

Cons

PMs do not care, how much ever you work, they always expect employee to work for more than 10 hrs a day. Life here sucks... you cannot spend a single evening with your family, you get calls when on vacation or offline from communicator.. there are lot of senior people, who are in the company for 8+ years, they think employees are slaves.. keep putting pressure on employees, and keep them ALWAYS under stress.. Lot of blame games and politics, few people have developed out of office relationships with the seniors, they do not work at all and keep bitching about peers / fellow employees to the PMs / resource managers. Generally people are hied for associate position and the company tries to keep them on low salary as many days as possible. Timesheets are also a pain here, as full time employees have to justify every minute of their work like contractors. In order to get full salary at the end of the pay period, every employee has to justify each and every minute of their work hrs spent. After all this hard work also, do not expect recognition unless you have out of office friendship with managers. Do not expect bonus, if you get an award in the same year. According to REI management Performance excellence monetary award / referral money / Yearly bonus are all the some, all the employees get only one of the above in an year.
