Managers
We had a meeting on the new changes that are happening soon 3% raise not bad if your making 20.00 or more, but for some it's not alot for what we do. But hey it's a job.... that gets no respect or support. After the meeting I walked up to the GM and... — read more

Protected pto
What am I missing? Put a request in for PROTECTED pto for 2 days next week and I see my manager has rejected it. I'm positive it is at the club managers direction. Protected pto is being treated the same as regular pto at my club.
3%
Isn't it great 3% raise, more money and bonus for lazy managers....dedicated capped out employees get zero and more work while managers try to push them out the door because the dedicated know more then them. My last day is next week to give them... — read more

Being a long term associate here
It is very obvious that they do not prefer long term associates here, no matter how much they are more committed to work or better employees than newbies. I'm planning to leave soon for other reasons, but also because I don't want to get myself in a... — read more

Plus/Credit challenge, under staffed, cutting hours, what the flip?
Understaffed, they do not care, push Plus and Credit, yet they cut hours of associates with double digits and send them home during the challenges. What the flip? No cart attendants, so send worst floor associates out, they hit three cars. Kinda... — read more

Less Money More Work
So at our club the managers push more work on us when others call off, and reprimand us if we don't finish our job. As I was heading to the restroom, my manager stuck her head out of the office and said "Why are not working" I had to use the... — read more
Gas station
Any changes to gas station?
If you want me to work harder, pay me more
Some expectations from employees are really unrealistic. Even if I was paid more, I don't know how I could mentally and physically deal with those double or even triple workloads. However, Sams still expects us to meet these unrealistic... — read more

The Ides of January
Companies are cutting costs. Amazon is cutting people. Bed Bath & Beyond talking about shutting their doors. Fourth quarter sales weren't where they wanted them to be. Be glad you don't work at the HO or in middle management. The cuts are... — read more

All that work you've done with a skeleton crew, all the blood, sweat and tears. The call offs, the lot guys not showing up, you've givin it all you've got. Your clubs made 2 million easy in the last 10 days. You've cooked your last Ham on... — read more
Mentally prepared for January inventory?
It seems to me that I can never be sufficiently prepared for it.
Christmas bonus
I envy people who get Christmas bonuses. A huge company like this should do better for its associates. Merry Christmas
This place….
I’m so disappointed in my workplace. I ABSOLUTELY could run it better, I could basically just keep doing what I’m already doing. But why? Feels like this place used to be great, but the standards are pretty low. From the TOP, DOWN. What a... — read more
LOA to work other job
Is it ok to take a medical leave of absence from Sam’s Club but continue to work my other job? Sam’s should be ok without me since everyone else usually does all my work, but my other job is a smaller competitor and I only work at Sam’s to get the... — read more
Priorities

Bonus
So apparently there is bonuses for associates next year 🤔. And if you exceed expectations you can get over the maximum amount 🤯, but you have to be a salaried manager or work in home office 🙃. How do you over exceed expectations when you just walk... — read more
Bluetooth headphones
Our store had this huge meeting about having headphones in while on forklift and when club is open. Only lasted about a month, why are people so disrespectful and go right back to using them, even managers🤬🤬😍
Christmas
I'm going to campaign really hard next year for the clubs to be open on Christmas. Think of all the sales, not to mention plus and credits we are leaving on the table by not being open. The clubs have to compete in a world with the internet that... — read more
