Pros

I can't think of any pros. It's a pretty horrible environment to work in. Actually, the biggest pro is when the CEO is not there. When he travels, which is fairly often, the office transforms into a friendly, chatty, happy place to be. When he is in the office everyone is quiet, hunkered down in their office and unwilling to engage with anyone.

Cons

The office itself is the epitome of commercial office building wasteland. It is a miserable physical space that makes you miserable when you're inside. The CEO is one of the worst workplace people I've ever met. There must be a good heart in there somewhere because he is involved in lots of charity stuff but at work he is a horrible, nit-picking, micro-managing narcissist.

Pros

I worked here from Oct 2023 to March 2025 in Denver. I loved it here and only left due to me moving and when moving they even offered some hybrid positions within the company which I appreciated. The people you work with are great and same with the customers. The day to day is not to hectic but you still stay busy throughout the day which is nice. You manage most of the store operations and have a hand in practically in every part of the office. The job teaches you about not just sales but operations, invoicing, inventory, and ordering. So it’s a pretty diverse position. You get what you give because the commission is pretty aggressive for the industry which is nice and still having a base salary is nice too. They are understanding with the area if we had a snow storm they would always either close the shop or have a delay open which was nice. At no point did I feel my job was at jeopardy nor did I feel I was underpaid and all my experiences with upper management went well.

Cons

I will say that the review below this is not me. Its ridiculous that someone feels the need to pretend to be me and write a false review because they feel some type of way towards Geoshack. My cons are not towards Geoshack leadership or The company but the person who is pretending to be me is putting my relationships at risk for no reason. Thankfully I still stay in conatct with the team at GeoShack and was able to let them know that that review was not mine.
