This club is probably the worst club to work in. Managers don’t know their area or a simple question and instead spend their days upstairs eating and sitting around relaxing while the hourlies do all the grunt work. Don’t even ask for the front end... — read more

So if you’re one of the lucky ones that get the early shifts and the days off that you want... how long does that last? Do you keep that schedule until the next company idea rolls around or do you have to swap after each quarter or a certain time... — read more

Check out this article I just saw.
https://amp.businessinsider.com/costco-vs-sams-club-2019-4 Some of the pics they post while shopping at Sam's are embarrassing. I'm not blaming the associates. They're doing as much as they can. I would gladly pay more for a membership at Costco too.
