Pros

Wow! A lot of negative reviews. I thought I would share my GeoShack working experience so far. Here I go. I am currently an outside sales representative/ sales specialist. I am provided with flexible hours, benefits, vehicle allowance, a new laptop, a new cell phone, and online resources - including sales and support resources and all historical client transactions (i.e. primary contacts, estimates, invoices). Training is ongoing. If I request specific training it is provided to me once it becomes available. The person I report to is knowledgeable of my sales territory and helps me to build relationships with clients. Leads are forwarded to me internally via the person I report to and other sales specialist (including counter sales specialist). As an outside sales representative I am expected to call existing customers and potential customers. I am expected to travel. I am expected to build relationships and follow through with the sales process.

Cons

The company continues to grow quickly and suffers somewhat from what I refer to as growing pains. As the company continues to grow individual responsibilities increase until a new employee is hired to take on a new role. This transition leads to some employee turnover - until the new role is appropriately filled.

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.
