Here you go. It's mostly just a good PR, but it has some good quotes.

The emperor has no clothes. All that "shucks and golly gee" good ole boy talk won't help when the economy tanks. I'm tired of being overworked by lazy managers and yelled at because I didn't get enough club signups.

Must be an HR person from Bass saying that a laid off Cabelas person is bad mouthing the company. LOL we’ll see after the cut backs that are coming.

They're preparing for more than a small recession. Sales are very soft and there are still supply chain issues. A toxic culture at corporate with no true leadership. Budgets are cut and all of the different departments are working in a silo. I've been with the company for a while and we are going to see cuts and my guess is around July.
JLM is in the dark about what is going on because the so called leadership that should be feeding him the truth is lying to cover for their own inept leadership. I hate to see this company going this way but the culture has changed and this it's a shame
I wish to god JLM would see this and ask the people that are working in the stores and at corporate how things are but he is disconnected and relying on BS insight from his executive leadership team.
We're circling the drain and those that are supposed to stop it are pulling the damn lever to save face.

Who cares about what they say to Forbes when positions haven’t been filled in a year and we keep loosing every little benefit. They are prepping for a possible small recession and punishing us to make up profits.
