RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at REI part-time for more than 3 years
Pros
I can't imagine a retail store treating employees much better. Great benifits, discount on gear, friendly/casual environment, consistant pay increases and bonuses and they really took care of us during the whole pandemic with emergency pay for everyone, not just full time employees.
Cons
Sometimes its hard to get your scheduling requests confirmed but other than minor admin stuff no complaints.
