I've interviewed for several positions. When i was initially hired, my interview was very casual, no pre-written questions. It wa a friendly conversation with a manager. Subsequent interviews were like a factory line. Formal interviews with multiple managers, asking questions off a corporate list

Always open to chat about things that worry someone. Helpful in the day to day.

I've worked for REI for more than 3 years. I love it. The managers work hard to train and retain employees. The customers are usually great and really care about preserving and enjoying the outdoors. During a recent illness, I felt very supported by the company and my managers and coworkers.

Quality products at fair prices, particularly their own products and their co-op values, however, they have stayed from these values in the past seversl years snd moved to becoming like most ogher retailers in this cstrgory, and have lost some of my loyalty.
