No Bonus!!
Let me get this straight. Your board is desperately trying to sell you to BP. A company that has somebody doing your job down in Missouri. Now, the equity in your homes is gone because it's a one company town. Then, they decide not to give you a... — read more
Gotta love town gossip!
Rumors going around that this deal may not go through and is just a ploy to get the company to become privatized again. Thoughts?

That knocking you are hearing, it's not BP knocking at the door. It's Tommy driving the last nail into the coffin of Sidney/Cabela's!!!
I feel for everyone in Sidney, Cabela's corporate and people out in Cabela's retail. But the end is near and it's not good for Sidney. Get out while you can. If you own a house in Sidney, or surrounding communities, forget it and move on. Find a job... — read more
Bad news for shareholders
Now I see this article says that Tommy is likely renegotiating the deal. Rather than getting $65.6 per share re would settle for $52. Yikes that's quite a haircut. Could have this be handled any worse? I know a lot of outfitters we're counting on... — read more

D--k Cabela died and the layoff process started the next week. Here's to remembering what was. Ignore the guy named Tommy with the beady eyes.
https://vimeo.com/204205122/5f78632031 Propaganda sent out this week via email. They should be ashamed. Be sure the store looks nice with no product or payroll!

I would wonder why if I was sitting in a position of power in Nebraska?

Thanks Cabelas!
For keeping us on our toes and enabling hiring freezes in this town of Sidney. Real classy. Move now if you can.

The stress sets in for Cabela's/Millner casualties

It's fun listening to the recruitment talk from the senior managers to people they are trying to hire.
Sometimes just being a little mouse in the house, sitting listening to how if you are hired, we are doing it for the good of the store. (while they don't tell them, you are really going to be doing two jobs at once, and expected to continue to sell... — read more
