Pros

Patagonia has a great company culture from the highest levels down to the bottom. I worked with an incredibly positive and understanding team. Discount is great.

Cons

It's a retail position and it comes with all of the drawbacks of one. Repetitive work, long hours on your feet and the occasional rude customer. Overall these are mitigated by the Pro's AKA feeling like a valued member of a team.
