Could be the right fit for the right person
Feb 3, 2023 - Senior Test Engineer in Colorado Springs, CORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Vast majority of employees are pretty great and share a passion for the outdoor industry. Outdoor industry discounts. Bonus when things are going well. Benefits are decent and vacation tops out at 5 weeks (was 3 weeks when I started!).
Cons
Low pay for similar work in OTHER industries. Probably on par for outdoor industry. Lack of career opportunities and growing salary once making it to the senior level (or top level) of your discipline. Bonus is level across the company regardless of individual performance. You either sink or swim together.

Pros
Overall culture is really positive and conducive to a good work environment. Location is awesome and there has been recent investment in facilities
Cons
Pay and benefits are definitely not as competitive as some industries, the strong bike culture can also foster some eliteism and bro-culture which can make the environment feel uncomfortable for newcomers or outsiders that aren't obsessed with bikes

Poor work ethic
Dec 29, 2022 - Engineering in Colorado Springs, CORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Discounts on bikes and components. Some great people. Low pressure.
Cons
HR is clueless as they try to push an agenda. A lot of favoritism. Drinking in the offices is common on certain days. Not a strong work ethic as many just ride their bikes for hours and hours each week. Very much a "bro" atmosphere.

Great people and great product. You don’t have to be a serious biker to work here but you have to love bikes.

Not a place that holds your hand and tells you you’re special every day.

Pros
-100% will recommend to a friend. You have to be somewhat comfortable with change, occasional ambiguity, and empowerment. -Engineering function has generally strong management -Great corporate transparency -flat org structure with ability to reach out to anyone -we're growing in our continuous improvment journey -People are empowered to improve their situations by raising concerns, helping with improvement projects, and escalating issues/barriers -Super fun coworkers, great sense of community -Some offices dog friendly -Good training/development opportunities (this can vary by department and how much you know is available and can ask for) -We've taken DEI seriously. Our offices are more welcoming and more fun because of it. -Some flexibility in time for work/life balance, appointments during business hours, etc -High pay for the bike industry, decent for any industry. We might be slipping behind other industries slightly in recent years, but I'm not leaving! (note: total comp includes a bonus. You can't compare salaries with others that don't have a bonus)
Cons
-Management/leadership quality can vary by department.
