If the Bass Pro rumors aren't true, then why isn't Tommy or someone at corporate doing some damage control to make us feel better?

Starting to look for another job

The job does not pay enough for all the guff I have to put up with. One thing management can not get right is that we all know we are expendable and replaceable at the store but they put on this charade that we are integral to the business. From what... — read more

Don't have the product to sell and little help for re-stocking

It is getting very frustrating to re-stock my department. We have a bunch of new hires that have minimal clue on how to re-stock or desire for that matter. They stand around and socialize when they should be neatening up the department or put product... — read more

ATTN; SHOPLIFTERS

Cabela's corporate has made the decision to eliminate store detectives at what they call low risk stores. This means corporate is willing to accept the losses as long as it does not exceed the salaries of the store detectives they laid off.

Shovel crap and sell credit cards'

We sell the same made in China crap that everyone else does, we just charge more for it and the customer to get our credit card. The only way I would invest in the stock is to option it short.

Mass Hiring?

Was informed this week of a mass hiring event coming up. Last time I told someone to come to CAB to work the entire department she was hired into was cut. I'll be damned if I set someone else up for failure again.

Aggressive hospitality?

Management said to show "aggressive hospitality" to customers to get them to get club cards. That's an oxymoron and it's just going to push customers away. I work in an office in one of the stores and there is a guy that's threatened me multiple... — read more

Restructure started again.

Tommy Boy won't be happy until he buries Cabelas like he did Remington. Stocks are down about $30 from 15 months ago. The axes started wielding again at most stores. Best Buy, beware, your his new target.

We are becoming a self service big box and most of us do not know how long we will have a job. People who want to work here should know that.

Rush to cut staffing.

2015 2nd quarter earnings coming out 7/23/15 don't look good. Knee jerk reaction to appease stock holders. Management restructuring, FT hours once set at 40, reduced to 32. Hiring frozen. Some lead positions eliminated. New structure is almost... — read more

Sorry, Dick. Wish you coulda stayed around a bit longer.

I recently left a Cabela's store due to many things that I'm seeing here. We were understaffed, to the point where we had fewer cashiers than registers and there weren't enough floor workers to assist. On top of that, some of the managers refused to... — read more

Not Fun

It's not fun working there anymore. Not staffed properly. Long lines at check out. What ever happened that the Managers don't jump on a cash lane to help? Time to get out. Dick is probably spinning like a turbine seeing what his company turned into.
