The reduction at the La Vista office comes on the same day that eBay announced it would be eliminating 10% of their 10,000 full time employees and releasing temporary workers.

Gorman would not mention how many positions at the La Vista office were eliminated, but says the company remains dedicated to its operation in Nebraska, which opened in 2000.

A company news release says about two-thirds of the reductions will come from not filling open positions and the remainder from cutting workers. Cabela's says it will be providing severance and outplacement aid. The company would not specify how many jobs would be lost or how many people would be fired, but it said only the Sidney headquarters would be affected.
