If they restructuring or taking away these positions they really have kept it pretty quiet. Nothing concrete, just a bunch of scenarios that haven’t came to fruition. No new news is good news.

I can't see anything happening this week if there are GMs out helping other clubs. I wish they would do it already instead of leaving people wondering.

I'm really sick and tired of people posting blatantly untrue things to mess with people when their entire livelihood is on the line. Those saying that Costco will not hire former Sam's Club or Walmart employees are lying. Simple as that. I know of at... — read more

Anyone heard this and when it’s going to happen?

Heard cart attendants getting the ax tomorrow. Sourcing to a 3rd party.

Will marketing and membership teams be getting the ax this week?

I'm still not sure what to do. Why transfer to another Sam's for something similar to happen again in the near future? I lost my audit lead position less than a year ago. A position I held for 5 years. I loved it, and was good at. Took a different... — read more
