Camping World Employer Reviews

was the opportunity to learn how to do something new. work and business practice was consistent

Great leadership, always willing to step out on a limb and try something new. I learned how to be a dynamic communicator, and enjoyed the one-on-one time with my team members and my clients.

Camping World has positions open throughout the country and growing at a good pace. There is tremendous opportunity for someone to really grow and develop in their career.

The company was a good one,but there was no room advancement.

You are challenged everyday and learn to multi-task and prioritize.

My typical day was waiting on customers and making sure the right parts were given or ordered for the customer and cashing out in register. I learned all about RV units and the parts that were needed. My boss was a amazing man and very nice to work for. My co-workers were all real nice and got along very easy with all of them. The most enjoyable part – more... was meeting new customers and seeing the new mechandise that was sent in for us to set up in store. – less

enjoyed going to work every day. the fellow employess were great people to be around

great job and friendly co workers. The General Manager is very verbally abusive so beware but its a fun job other than that.

Camping World was my place of work for many years, the Company made many changes in those years. The new direction with the CEO did not include me in his next set of changes. I enjoyed our customers they were challenging, inquisitive and eager to learn from someone with knowledge. The hardest part of my job was dealing with the uneasy feeling that the – more... CEO would change direction again and dismiss solid associates. Regional VP's also shared the same feelings regarding the CEO that seems to be more interested in promoting himself. I am sure he has a plan and it may be a great plan, unfortunately it leaves for many untrained people to fill positions that need the skilled and qualified. – less

A typical day at work was data entry and sometimes going to other departments for some training. Good company to work for but was hired in only for a temp position. Really respected my boss and was a very good person. There was no hard part to this job except when my job there was over, really hated leaving this job.

Managed a team of call center agents. Started as a call center agent myself and was promoted to manager with significant pay raise within 9 months.

A Typical day at camping world would start out very slow, around 7:30 I would come in count the safe, count all three registers and make sure everything balanced. After this I would clean and straighten up the store. Around 10:30 the customer flow would pick up I would check people out at the registers and I would try to sell Memberships to the customers. – more... The day will continue on like this until close and then on the days that I was the closer I would re count the safe make sure that it was at te amount that it needed to be at then I would close down one register at a time until we were completely closed and the last customer was rung out. All three tills needed to be at a set amount, I had to deposit the extra money in the deposit bags and then place the bags in the safe along with the tills. Once the money is counted and everything is balanced in the computer system I run the daily reports and send them to my general manager. then I would proceed to Lock the store up and set the alarm. I have learned a great deal from this job. I know how to count money and make everything balance, I have learned a lot about customer service and people skills. I know how to run daily reports and how to set up a store and follow a planogram. The hardest part about this job Is being able to stay calm and keep my patience with a frustrating customer. The most enjoyable part of my job is meeting the people and solving a problem that they are having. – less

I found it strange that employees were leaving with no notice, resigning by email, phone calls and even sticky notes. There is no 401K match, insurance is not the best and the commissions and spifs are difficult to get.
I find it strange that a employees job can be posted before they are fired or they could be expected to train their replacement. I – more... have even heard about someone that just stopped recieving a pay check and when they called to find out why they didn't get paid they learned they didn't work for Camping World anymore.
I think these people are crooks and the reason they call themselves the Walmart of RV's is because they both treat employees like trash. Camping World could care less about employees or customers, they just want suck more money from both. – less

Co-workers are helpful with tricky situations. I have more knowledge now due to the training, which is provided.

By far the worst professional position I have ever had. If you do well and set company records, you will not be rewarded. In the 4 months I was with the company, they managed to process two General Managers, two Service Managers, two techs, and the office manager for cw walked out. Also, there are 2 computer systems on witch you must match work orders. – more... One is DOS based and one is Windows. Very time consuming and annoying when busy. If your looking for a job where everyone above you lies, this is for you. Just don't plan to buy a house or anything. – less

I worked for this company for 3 years. I worked in 3 different departments and none of them were very sound. The company is constantly making changes in upper management. My husband worked there for 3 years as well and was let go for no reason. The company went through 4 years with no raises. They do not value their employees in the least.

I made alot of friends there at camping world, I really like my job , You know its great when you can just go about your day and no one bothers you and you can get all of you work done.

I was with the company for a few years and the only thing they care about are numbers and the higher ups pockets. They do not care about the customers nor their employees. The management leads by fear not respect and the sales division is cut throat. If you go into sales do not plan on taking any days off. The employees are always the scapegoats for – more... the lack of the companies management experience. – less

A typical day was answering multi-phone line to schedule appointments for routine performance repairs and warrant approved work to be done on customers recreational vehicles. Sending out internal and exteranl email responses to keep every party in the loop of work progress. The co-workers were a blast to work with, and management was understanding when – more... I had to depart due to personal medical reasons. – less

Camping world is a company with great benefits but no work/life balance.
