If you have meetings tomorrow make sure to post what you find out.

I have a question for all of you BYOD haters. What do you honestly think the company wants with your “pictures and text messages”?? Do you really think they want to spy on the average Joe shmo meat cutter or sales associate. Get real!

Just wondering, is there any certain category of associates that is in greater danger of being cut than others. It doesn't matter what the criteria is, whether it’s based on location, certain job, age or anything else, does any category really stand... — read more 

What is this lump payout??

A tier 4 club that has 2 night managers and now that they are eliminating the night shift what happens to 1 of those managers?

At my club they are threatening to coach anyone who doesn’t download BYOD, is this allowed? Everyone should have their choice in the matter, as they pay their own phone bills.

Is the schedule part of one wire messed up? I can't get it to load.

Finally.. People will be held accountable

Everyone on here assumed closings would be announced in January. Truth of the matter is - rather than do a sweeping close, they're just doing them on a one by one basis throughout the year. These stores are closing out east. Included is their closing... — read more 

I know this was probably already a topic on this boar at some point, but i would like to get some info on this. Is the pattern the same at every club in which changes happened. At my club there were no sifts yet, but I’m not naive to think that that... — read more

Positions being eliminating, clubs possibly closing, positions being shifted… and that all comes without any warning and not even an announcement what do they want to do exactly. Maybe even the management doesn’t have a clue what they want to achieve... — read more 

Pretty quiet today Nothing on YBM?

This is true and is out there story out of Harrisburg also Philly area media. Underperforming businesses..60 more closures means more “ right sizing” of the fleet! Meanwhile Costco raises min starting wage to $15 ... who has it right??

Please tell me what are the Taste and Tips going to do?When do they start?How will this affect the door greeters?

So how does this work? Does seniority have any effect on what you work or how do they pick who works what shifts? Just curious.

Any word on managers losing positions from YBM?

Less team leads, and more departments with a pay raise, cutting FM1(bakery+produce), and overnight to days across the whole company. Does anyone know if these rumors are true.

Any updates on optical or pharmacy from ybm yet

I’m told GMs called their clubs early this morning and instructed club to take ALL Sams Club signs down? No explanation just take them down? WTF??

Anything new about TBC changes? So far it's the only "specialty" area that requires training and knowledge that does not have it's own Manager in the department. I can imagine a lot of clubs are losing profits because the everyday managers don't know... — read more 

Hands up, are any club managers stupid enough to break the non dis closure agreement and give up their generous salary and risk a liability suit, all so a bunch of whiny people can whine a few days sooner about things that are changing.

Honestly, what would you do to improve the situation at Sam's other than eliminate positions and close clubs? Is there a way to repair the damage that has already been done without a bunch of people losing their jobs or is it too late already? I am... — read more 

I know there are probably a thousand rumors and one thing is for sure, the shifts and reorgs won’t stop anytime soon, but I was wondering if somebody has any info or has some logical speculation about what positions could be eliminated next?

See the Roz Brewer scenario early retirement excuse used again. Getting kind of old. Maybe she got a promotion with Amazon. Can't imagine all the changes for our futures now.

Any more news on the marketing team?

I heard Competitive Shopper position is going away. Is this true?????

Here’s the article that summarizes what exact changes will the new generation of Scan & Go bring. I know the last thing the associates want to hear is more automation, but I thought I could get some opinions on how this could impact us on an everyday... — read more 

Just want to express how EXCITED it makes me to see another minority, like myself, in a powerful position! This company isn’t so bad afterall.

Gisel is "retiring" and Vine may be gone. Fresh 1 and belt program may be going away as well.

Maybe they already know that the severance package is changing and its not worth waiting around for. I know this might be just a guessing comment by somebody, but it is enough to have me stressing over it. Does anybody know if there is any truth... — read more 

Any idea what this is about? I was told this would be a long meeting.

Since this new position came into effect in December how many of the backroom associates are working weekends in other clubs?

Can anyone explain exactly what this is

I'm wondering, since so many people seem so unhappy working here, what is it that's making you stay? I personally like my job. It pays okay compared to other retailers, I like the people I work with and most of the time the work is not hard. But... — read more 

So getting alot of feedback from particular mgmt regarding call ins. So you have those full time people who call in all the time, work the system and still get all the perks. That's gonna change. The more you call in, the less Sam's share. The more... — read more 

I really think that this just on part of a wider reorganisation and in that sense they won’t stop at eliminating lower management positions. What employees could be affected next?
