Posted schedule changing all the time.

Lately I've noticed that my schedule changes all the time. They post three weeks out, but I need to check every day to keep up. They are not giving notice of the changes. I know at one time this wasn't allowed. Did it change? If so when?

6.5% Comp! Best in years, nice. But How?

In today’s retail this is good. But how? Well, let’s eliminate more clubs- check, let’s eliminate more positions- check, let’s not account for inventory correctly- check. Umm, what elses. Poor hourly wages and cutting hours helps a little, so... — read more

Walmart and Sam’s has apparently treated their employees so poorly that the employees actively root for the company’s demise. That tells me that the treatment of our workers has been so abysmal that people are not only angry with leadership, they... — read more

Survey

A new survey to find out how associates really feel? This is a joke. Manager's are hand selecting their personal favorites to participate. No bias there... and you know it's all because someone shouted "union".

Has anyone heard anything more on the fate of the receiving clerk?

Any closings?

I haven't heard about any clubs closing since the big purge from the start of the year. I'm not sure if I'm happy or scared by that fact. It could mean that what Walmart planned to close was closed and the rest of us are safe. Or it could mean... — read more

Sam's Club Assets
