I worked at Bean 2001-2006, great place to work! Lots of perks, treat workers very well.

I was told Bean was mature worker friendly, so I applied online and was turned down within minutes.....real friendly.

you will pay an income tax to Maine!

I got a friend that worked for years at colemans managing a store and now works for Bass pro shops managing one little section of the store... he likes it better but I still get the idea retail is retail..

Not if you are willing to pay Maine Income Tax on wages earned in Maine, no matter where you live...Living in NH won't save you any Maine state income tax liability. Wages earned in Maine are subject to Maine Income Tax.
