      The last 5 years have been our best run in total company performance since moving to Idaho. Our core values are highly visible and integrated with all aspects of company culture and used as a guidance system for decision making. We also have regular "HR Free" team meeting with our manufacturing associates to get feedback and make adjustments. Some of our best changes have come from these meetings.

      Pros

      Working at Buck has been a tremendous joy. I love all the people I work with and have great repore with other departments. We are continuously working together to tackle issues that come up, to make everybody's job easier and avoid any problems downstream in the manufacturing process. We have an amazingly diverse workforce, with differing skill sets and experience, but we all come together to make industry leading knives and cutlery. We have an excellent benefits package, employee discount and employer matching 401K. I absolutely adore our products and love telling people that I work at Buck Knives. We are American made and I wouldn't have it any other way! I wake up in the morning excited to go to work and to tackle the next challenge. I love working at Buck and God willing, I will stay here until retirement.

      Cons

      Pay is the only thing I can complain about, but I also haven't been here that long. I know that when the time comes for a raise, I will be paid what I am worth. Other than the pay, there are no cons working for Buck. Except the employee discount. I've spent quite a bit of money in our store because we get an amazing employee discount and I just can't help myself but to buy more knives! 🙂
