It was unwelcoming, full of cowardly management, afraid of someone with a spine who would call them on their downfalls. - Inventory Control Specialist Bass Pro Shops Employee Review

Pros

Beautiful scenery, loved interacting with the guests and VERY limited staff. The company discount was great and even though I had to train myself for the most part, it made me stronger.

Cons

Absolute snake pit. The back stabbing, cliquish and gossiping behaviour by staff and management is a call for serious help. Huge turnover rates of good people. The leftovers are those who are like minded, or stuck or wanting out!

Pros

General coworker relationships are positive. Lots of walking around and moving, which keeps you active. That is about it...

Cons

Where to start? The root of the many issues of this company is that upper management (who make all the decisions) is so far removed from the people who the actual decisions and changes affect. Decisions are made in a vacuum, and employees are treated as numbers on a spreadsheet. Bass Pro is a true corporation in the cliche sense. Work here if you are okay with making below-average to average pay and dreading going to work. Another huge issue is what they allow the customers to get away with. Appalling, really, and some customers should be ashamed of the way they act, but people will always take as much as you allow and then some, so really it starts with the company setting clear boundaries that protect ITSELF but also its employees.
