Pros

The only pro that I have for my role is the fact that I had a fantastic GSM in the department I worked in: the GSM invested in me as a human who has a life off the clock, not just as an outfitter at work

Cons

In my particular location, we had both a GM and AGM change at the same time, and the company did a terrible job finding the new upper store management. The company did not look at the volume of sales our store produced and tried to find qualified candidates, much less promote from within for any roles within my location (I was denied twice from in-store advancement)

Pros

Bass Pro Shops has a strong team culture, and the people are one of the best parts of working here. I've had the opportunity to work with talented and supportive coworkers who are willing to collaborate and help each other succeed. The company also offers exposure to large-scale marketing initiatives and provides opportunities to work on a variety of projects across multiple channels and business areas.

Cons

The compensation and benefits package could be more competitive, especially when compared to similar marketing roles in the industry. Project timelines are often extremely aggressive, leaving little room for unexpected challenges and creating a fast-paced, high-pressure environment. While the work can be rewarding, the combination of tight deadlines and limited resources can make it difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance at times.
