Overall Reviews at Cabela's Inc.

Production
I did learn a lot working here, although the moral of the company was not good. It was mentally abusive and not a family oriented company. If you were sick or had a family member that was sick you had to use a personal day and use a vacation day. They were not great to you if you were on workmans comp or light duty. They didn't care for the overall health of their employees and mistreated them. My experiance from this company was a 0 out of 5. I would never recommend anyone to work here.

Excellent place to work
I miss every day of not being there. I truly loved working there. The management, my co workers, the customers - everything about that place was great. They provided training and benefits, and the opportunity to advance was practically limitless. If I could have stayed, I would have.
ProsOpportunity for advancement
ConsSometimes you would get a cranky customer

Growing Retail Establishment - Fun, but it's a grinder
My day was ever changing, which was awesome. Each moment presented it's own challenges. Growth potential is awesome if you are able to travel, or are able to relocate. I was not able to do either. My boss was awesome. I miss my boss and and my job. Not too many people can say that. The pay wasn't great, but it was made up with the discount.
If you want to work your butt off, travel, and have a lot of fun using great gear - CABELA'S IS FOR YOU!
ProsFree lunch on major holidays, advancement
ConsRetail. It's not the easiest. I can't travel anymore. I hope you can.

Great place to work
If you like the outdoors with clean air and views that go for miles, this is the greatest place. If you must have the packed in feeling of the big city, might not be the best
ProsGreat atmosphere to excel for your best
ConsLittle bit remote
