What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Communication could be much better, some managers have one way of doing things and other managers have a different way. Management and the outfitters are taught differently on how things are ran. The only care the management has is if you get a club referral. $1 on your paycheck and $5,000 to cabela
Scheduling, preferential treatment, communication. Management training .
Making things fair for everyone . Giving us the proper tools and equipment to to our jobs !!!
They need to get off their power trips and be more empathetic.
all outfitters should have to follow the same policies with the same consequences. They also need to properly train their employees. Most importantly, they need to actually recognize when an employee is going above, instead of just loading more on in attempt to balance what their favorites dont do.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
My job/ethics are not taken into account when considering my pay. I work above my paygrade but Cabela's could care less. People are genuinely trying to do better jobs but Cabela's does not recognize the talent they have.
Pay, comp , benefits, discount, salary
Yearly evaluations are often poorly executed and offer little increase in compensation. Those around me are often noticed for all of the extra effort and tasks they take one and therefore aren't recognized come their evaluation.
Review from Operations Dept
I would like to see a fair and liveable offered to all outfitters and some kind of financial incentive to reward those that go the extra mile.
Refer to previous comments. Event coordinator is necessary. More department leadership. PTO *sick+ Vacation days*, larger discounts/more giveaways. Original Gear. American gear. Compensation for travel.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Review from Sales Dept
Some are great others need to make sure that they are not stepping out of line for those that have been with the company for a long time or to people that have more experience than them
Review from Sales Dept
Our coworkers that are new hires need to be trained that we all work as a team. Most that are hired now come in with high and mighty attitudes. We need to take knowledge from each individual and learn from each other. Build each other up and work for the same goal.
Review from Customer Support Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
The hourly amount that is paid
New HR, new management, better training is needed.
I would hope it isn't a Company culture that causes the unpleasant work environment but that of just a few power hunger individuals at the store level. If all members of management were to truly embrace the company values there wouldn't be an issue.
The store manger john w. Oh, doesn't understand the side of the warehouse or how to check in firearms or he doesn't want anything to do with fire arms he needs to be transferred and get somebody who knows how to run a warehouse along with a retail front
Try to help people and to help
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Timley manner. Stop asking general questions and have it pretain to the job i appoled for
Make it easier to apply
Ask more customer service based questions, provide potential scenarios and ask how one would react, Break down policies, allow time for questions, provide standard answers to common questions so they're prepared. Go over things like club card, conservation roundup, gear guard, phone capture, etc.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Management needs some major help. There is obvious favoritism, they can never seem to give a straightforward answer, there is obvious tension amongst the leadership team, and their answer to everything if questioned is along the lines of "if you don't like it, just quit." & that's just a start.
Just dealing with rude ppl and a lack of product
Review from Customer Support Dept
Help to to be the best
no customers, loosing product, we need more stock and need to give back better discounts
Review from Sales Dept
Many people aren't shopping at Cabela's, because new brands are coming in that are Bass Pro exclusive. I've heard from others that some customers aren't willing to shop there anymore because of it.
