Pros of working at Cabela's

The PROS of working at Bass Pro Cabela's are the atmosphere created by management. The Store Manager, as well as Assistant Managers, is one of FAMILY. The promotion of doing things, whether it be stocking or paperwork or customer assistance, well is a foregone conclusuon. The "tasks" are always approached with a zest of doing it completely right. After the task, or customer service, is completed you know it was done correctly. This mental attitude is associated with management's emphasis of, " a job dine well is a job well done."

Cons of working at Cabela's

The cons of working at Cabela's are hard to think of. There are the very rare occassions that some type of task cannot be fully accomplished because of outside influences. ie lack of product; a lack materials; etc. The cons are just not very evident.

Pros of working at Cabela's

They have some of the best discounts offered for a wide variety of brands

Cons of working at Cabela's

The biggest cons are the credit card. I’ve never seen a company push a credit card so hard and absolutely crap on their own employees for not making goals. There is a deep disconnect between the people in corporate and the actual stores.

Not much praise can be given

How would you improve Cabela's's culture?

Greatly cut back on their credit card stuff, instead of making threats to employees in the stores for not meeting some goal. They definitely need to up the pay for everyone in the actual stores.
