I know a lot of people are unhappy at Bass. I read all the complaints here and they are valid. You’re unhappy with the way things are run, with management, and so forth. You can try to find another job with a competitor, but in reality you’ll find... — read more 

So I recently told my manager something in confidence and in return he told everyone what we spoke about. I had assumed the discussion would be kept confidential and now I feel betrayed that he has shared this with others. The only reason I spoke to... — read more 

I have to wonder if Johnny has any idea how his employees really feel about these two boys that have taken over the macon Ga store. They treat there employees like c-ap talk to them like c-ap, and think we are to take it, Johnny makes millions and he... — read more 

I’ve got some friends who work at other retail shops and they all said it’s been pretty bad. I think we did really well at my location. We seemed to be a little understaffed but it was nothing we couldn’t handle. Our customer counts were a little low... — read more 

I am a fairly new employee. I gave myself a year with the company to see if it would be a good fit. Well, my anniversary date is just around the corner and I have to admit I like this place. My manager is not as bad as some I’ve heard about and while... — read more 

I know many out there will not appreciate what I’m about to say but here goes. There are hundreds of employees who remain with Bass not because we love it or even like it here - but because it’s the way to pay the bills. I remember the difficulty I... — read more 

Anyone feel their store is not prepared to handle the onslaught of customers when Black Friday sales open? In the past we have always tried to prepare for it - but we always fall short. We either don’t have enough employees on shift - or we run out... — read more 

Raises to riffs..2021 lay offs? What is the word out there? I hear lots of circulation that leads will have more responsibility and become key carriers...cutting more salary managers out.

Sad when you work in a bass pro store that has an employee postive Gor rhis but They will not let you know who, so how the HELL do you know if you have been around this merson

I saw the company is doing seasonal hires. Anyone know if an employee who was laid off (not fired) can apply for those positions? I am also curious if anyone who was part of the layoffs back in the middle of the year has tried to apply. I’m just... — read more 

I found it interesting that the company won these awards for outstanding service and yet they treat employees like dirt. And winning “Most Reputable Company” ….don’t make me laugh... — read more 

Sometimes I have to wonder why are we even open. I'm not complaining - I still have a job that's giving me some measure of security as I look for something else. But even I can see that the numbers don't justify keeping us in business. Are others in... — read more 

So Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of Thanksgiving the stores are opening at 6am. How wonderful (sarcasm tone).

Anyone know when 401k stuff will start back up?

Listen I know it’s great basspro can brag about hiring people during the pandemic but this is the worst group of hires I’ve seen in the 5 years I’ve worked here. We barely got anyone to show up for our hiring day and the people we did hire aren’t... — read more 

It’s very unfortunate it has come to what it has. Losing knowledge with people leaving. Hiring kids who have no idea what they are doing. Everything and mean everything is about Club Card. Stock has been an issue for over twenty years for my store... — read more 

Will there be more sometime soon?

Is it me, or does Bass Pro have a problem with their Ads ? I have worked here for a little over a year now, and it seems we never have enough ad goods, and sometimes don't get them at all. We usually run out of product in the first day or so, but... — read more 

I thought a person had to be employed 90 days before they could apply for another job in the basspro stores as we have had 2 jobs open and people who have been at Bass Pro a while put in for them and they were giving to people who have not been here... — read more 

Santa's wonderland is on! Will he have to wear a mask?

Any rumors about the status of Thanksgiving and how black Friday will be handled?

Seen customers with the F word on their shirts few times in my store. Store probably afraid of getting no support from corporate in terms of telling a customer they can not wear the shirt. Corporate is useless.

How in the heck is the company telling multi year full time outfitters/managers they can’t get bonuses/review pay increases for the entire year because of Covid, but turn around and hand out $1000 retention bonuses to new employees day 1. I’m in the... — read more 

Started working for Basspro 3 weeks ago and I think I’ve made a huge mistake. What is going on with this company? Everything seems outdated and run as cheaply as possible. Most of the employees who aren’t full time are worthless. We are missing so... — read more

Any stores with employees testing positive? If so, any protocol being followed?

Former GSM here. I left several months ago and now work for a grocery store. One of the best moves I have ever made. For myself not feeling safe was the last straw but the past year contributed as well. Essentially I managed softlines and my team was... — read more 

Does basspro/cabelas plan on being competitive at all when it comes to employee benefits? I know we just received a 1 time bonus but we lost another manager to Lowe’s (who has been giving a bonus every month, plus hazard pay). Walmart, Sams, Costco... — read more

Glad to see this happening and tip of the cap for all who are on the front, middle, back, top and bottom of the line supporting the customers.

Hopefully this will boost store traffic and sales of Tracker Boats

How many stores lost their GM or Asst GM?

Any update on layoffs that where going to happen around this time? I would figure if something where to happen, it would be after the holiday. Hearing managers talk about corporate HR visiting stores in my district this month. I’m on edge and... — read more 

Good club card day=smiles and jokes Bad club card day=yelling, stomping and rearranging displays for no reason This cannot continue.

I work the register and have to deal with the people that don’t want to wear masks. When I ask them to put one on because it’s required in our state they cuss me out and call me all different types of names. They sometimes call either the GM, the... — read more
