Pros
-Slightly better than average pay for retail stores -Employees receive a free Sam's Club membership -Very easy to get a job there
Cons
-Poor, "computer-based" scheduling. You'll often get closing and opening shifts back to back, good luck staying on any kind of healthy sleep schedule. -Pay is significantly less than their leading competitor Costco. -They are understaffed to cut costs. -Management often lies, takes credit for others' work, will vanish for long amounts of time -They cut hours all of the time, sometimes they'll send people home early half way through a shift to cut costs. -Management will change shifts for their friends, but give everyone else the run-around if they try to change theirs. -You'll spend two days learning all of Sam's Club's policies with their computer-based modules, then find out the day you actually start working that just about everyone violates the policies, nobody cares. -Almost all of the employees are stressed out, do as little as possible and throw each other under the bus. -They expect all departments to push customers to upgrade their memberships. -No overtime, ever. People get fired for going a minute over 40 hours. -The way the store is run is flawed. Cashiers get swamped and the floor never finishes because 3 employees are always waiting for and escorting forklifts all day long.
