Pros

Discount, 3point5 discounts, working with people that enjoy the outdoors, many knowledgeable staff .

Cons

No family life, favoritism with schedules and in general, the blind leading the blind (from the GM all the way down to the managers), not what was expected, need a weekend off, give a month + notice and hope it happens. New availability policy went into effect, minimum is 16 hours a week, this does not include must have both Saturday and Sunday open availability, which means they want you to live at Cabela's and have no personal or family life.
