Pros

Can't complain about the discount and I've met lots of good friend working there. It's nice to see lots of the new stuff that comes in.

Cons

Employees are disposable at this place and zero trust by management even with long term employees. Want to bring your gun in to get some help tweaking your trigger, or bring in your bow to shoot on your lunch break? No can do we're afraid of employee theft. I have a BPS email and sent an email to store level management about some concerns I had (store related not personal) and got scolded for my "outburst". The email was very professional and was written solely for the benefit of the customer. Some people are recognized for hard work, but most of us bust our tails for little or no recognition.

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.
