Pros

As a lodge associate I enjoyed the every day interactions with customers. I really enjoyed selling hunting gear, guns, ammo etc.

Cons

Everything about management was disorganized and patronizing. Oh ad and at then end of the day they locked the doors to the store. Even if your department was cleaned up and everything accounted for you were forced to fold T-shirts and clean up after those who were lousy at their job. Basically you were held hostage.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
