Pros

Easy to get the job, coworkers at the store level usually are very enjoyable to work with, if you like sports and outdoors, you will like the products you sell, benefits package is average

Cons

non-competitive pathetic pay, the only full time staff is management and the occasional head cashier. The company in general, the higher up the chain you go, the less logical the decisions made are. The work-life balance of retail is extremely stressful. pay is so little that their retirement plan is useless.
