Vantaggi

For a large store I got the feeling the employees were great team players who shares a common vision - inspire others to get outside! I was shocked that I'm the most experienced "outdoorsman" in the store. Hey, it feels great...

Svantaggi

Managers have to lie to corporate (to keep their jobs) and hide the real downside of working in a department environment. Why? I think they are afraid if losing their jobs. Personally, I'm already sooooo tired of not being able to leave my department and feel like I'm constantly forced to fit into a corporate machine without any soul or personality. REI is a great mega-machine I have to admit.

Vantaggi

- Excellent coworkers - REI does a great job of hiring enthusiastic and personable staff - Slightly better pay compared with other retail in the area - Prodeals and discounts - Flexible hours - Good (although rapidly diminishing) healthcare benefits

Svantaggi

- Once a (better) company known for its investment in knowledgeable and friendly staff via extensive training and investment, the company has been slowly slashing away at most of what makes it special since the pandemic - Hours and benefits are worsening, proper employee training is becoming hard to come by - lots of mediocrity and sometimes questionable ethical calls made by management - Punitive disciplinary policies that seem to be designed to create higher turnover (advantageous to them given the gradual pay, benefit and policy changes)
