Pros

The only pro is the discount. The newhires most of the time always have a great attitude, willingness to learn, and put 110% effort into their work. This only lasts a couple of weeks until they find out how things truely are in that store.

Cons

There is no communication what so ever. Everyday we all walk in expecting a different set of rules no matter who the manager on duty is. The insurance is horrible. They told my doctor I didnt exsist in the system and I had been paying the insurance for over 2 years! Its all politics if you are in with the management crowd you could get away with anything and it would be ok with them. If you are not friends with management then it doesnt matter how hard you work you will never get recognition for it, not even so much as a "thank you".

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.
