Perks are nice but as you advance with the company it becomes more clear that management is in constant chaos. - Assistant Store Manager Patagonia Employee Review

Pros

Great employee discount Casual work environment Opportunities to participate in extracurricular activities (events, volunteerism) Healthcare and benefits (medical, dental, 401k) Paid to bike to work

Cons

Inconsistent direction from corporate, felt like departments did not communicate with each other, leaving retail to attempt to find the balance. Selling low quality, petroleum based products (Snap T's, H2NO) and having a trade-in program for a warranty while preaching to the public about sustainability. Nepotism to the highest degree, especially in retail, with no opportunity for advancement otherwise.
