When the MAFIA takes over a legit business and loots it, it is called a bustout. Also a pump and dump in stock scams. But for Tommy and his ilk in the US Business world it is just business as usual. American business teaching turned away from... — read more
Buy Out?
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?
Hello bass pro!?!?

Cabela's Layoffs 2016
What is the likelihood of Cabela's layoffs in Sidney in 2016? Please let me know if you have any information.
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
And the beat goes on!
The outfitters are getting beat again. Send home everyone and their brother, cut, cut and more cut hours. Maybe the Managers should donate some of their salary to match the wages Outfitters are losing with these cut hours. Sent home today again, with... — read more
Change is interesting
Current news has an investment group taking a n 11% position in the company. They are talking about everything from restructuring to an outright sale of the company.
Think about this
Tommy says apparel is suffering. They had put a man in charge of apparel that came from Guns and Ammunition. What does he know about apparel ? His business was good during the big gun scare during the last Presidential election and the unfortunate... — read more
This is what they do to some people. I found this out on the web
"Paul," a retail product developer whose story is included in a new report on the "financial penalty for being LGBT in America," says that being gay "decimated" his life savings. In February 2012, Paul, who is 59 years old and asked that his real... — read more
A house built on sand will not stand.
So finally after vampire sucking its existing stores dry to finance insane expansion, its stock drops like a rock when the rest of the market is up big time ! GO FIGURE
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
No more house charge?
What's up with that? Guess they didn't like us borrowing money interest free.
REALLY??
So a couple of weeks ago sixty some people are laid off at corporate and now when you look at the website there are 16 jobs posted at the very location where people were walked out the door. Makes no sense to me.
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.
BOYCOTT CABELA'S !
BOYCOTT CABELA'S!
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.
Get rid of Burtch and Fuller. They ruined Hamburg. Low sales and poor selections and quality. This level is a waste of payroll dollars.
Regional levels are a waste of payroll dollars. Burtch is so into his self that it is sickening. Fuller is miserable, cocky back stabbed. Burtch and Fuller better watch out you are both next! Bye bye!
Firearms Inspector
Cabela's eliminating and or cutting Firearms Inspectors positions/hours. This is a safety issue re deadly weapons. The lawyer for the plaintiff in the first accident is going to have field day. "Let me understand this, your firm deals in deadly... — read more
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.
Visit from Tommy?
Apparently CEO Tommy Millner will be visiting our store and DC at the end of the month. Has anyone out there already had a visit? I figure this is a "don't worry the company is strong" speech opportunity. Really looking forward to see how he spins... — read more
Want a laugh? Look at the indeed dot com job reviews.
Managers over at indeed dot com trying to raise the ratings on the company. lol
Distribution vs Stores?
I think we're all in agreement that this steaming dung pile of a company is going down faster than the Hindenberg. I just need to understand something from another perspective. I work at one of the DCs, in Retail filling. We are overworked like you... — read more
Find another job and do not look back
So many issues with management and the company's organization. The best thing to do is find another job and not be concerned anymore about the problems with Cabela's business plan. I wish the company good luck with finding outfitters that will want... — read more
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
I don't want anyone to be let go.....but.....
There are several useless positions in the store. PTS (product training specialist) for starters. Really, what a waste of 40 hours. Price change team. 90% of any price changes and/or ads are done by the dept leads anyways. Then we have a space... — read more
Lazy Managers
Hate it when they short staff the place and the checkout lines are long. You get a manager paging for all register trained people to get up front Immediately, but they don't come down to help. What ever happened to the good old days when the managers... — 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.
Go to Glassdoor and write a company review
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.
and executive vice president of directing directors VP
Oh know the cruise liner is tilting.....
You forgot VP, of Directing, Directors
buwahahahahaha
Dick is rolling in grave may turn into Zombie and bite executive team
Wow just as Cabelas is creating VP's, Directors, assistant Director of each director plus directors of directors. Oh I forgot VP of Directors of store outdoor smells oops that failed after millions spent, the animal sounds VP, directors of stench... — read more
Most of these posts are exagerated or a flat out lie.
Corporate is doing everything possible to support the outfitters.
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
No Layoffs - BUT
we've been told by management that hours are dropping off and even during the fourth quarter there will be less hours available
Restructuring of managers??
Anyone else hearing of this?
I hope Dick is watching what's happening from above to his creation...
Dick must be turning in his grave. This company has gone off the deep end... Might as well rename the company The clothing and shoe warehouse.
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.
