Since 2015, we have closed our doors on Black Friday, encouraging employees and members to spend time outside rather than shopping. All stores, distribution centers, activity centers, call centers and headquarters will close on Black Friday and receive a paid day off, receiving six or eight hours of pay based on their full-time or part-time status.
We believe the outdoors is for all. Fulfilling that sense of adventure is truly a life well-lived. Deeper yet, the outdoors are a part of our values and Co-op Way Days provide us time for living our values—for things like community service, advocacy, civic participation, outdoor recreation and stewardship.
That’s why twice a year, REI’s Co-op Way Day program allows you to take a workday to partake in the activities that are important to you. Part-time employees will be paid six hours, and full-time employees will be paid eight hours when you take your Way Day. You can view your Way Day balance on your pay statement. The current Co-op Way Day period will expire on February 22, 2025. Check out the full description of the REI Co-op Way Day Policy on REIweb > Employee Policies.
REI offers sabbaticals to celebrate your time with the company. On your 15-year service anniversary, you will earn a consecutive four-week, company-paid sabbatical. You’ll be eligible for another sabbatical every five years thereafter.
