Pros

They offer you health insurance, discounts on merchandise, and perks for the shooting range and skiing/snowboarding discounts.

Cons

The training is minimum and incomplete. As a Trainee you are primarily responsible for the shoe department. Its hectic and its unorganized. You need to know that you are responsible for a lot but do not have the resources.
