I cannot believe how some of the new people dress. Torn jeans and tight leggings. This is clearly against the dress code, but nobody really cares.
Restructurings
How many restructurings did we have in the past five years? Was anything achieved other than reducing the number of full-timers and cutting some (in many cases essential) positions? Which only led to more work for everybody else and worsening member... — read more

Merchandisers get no respect
The way management talks to our merchandisers is so disrespectful and they pay is mediocre and they take care 75% of the club they deserve better.
Block Schedule
This is how Block Scheduling was sold to us.... "Our associates have spoken, and we have listened. You want consistency in your work schedule". Then, about two weeks later, they added..... "except for the best people we have (in my club, Fresh... — read more
Two days off in a row.
I swear, I'd join a union if they promised two days off in a row. You get nothing with only one day off. You can't go anywhere or do anything with the family.

Hiring floor partners

Block schedule does not exist
I quess block scheduling is gone because the way these fresh managers do the schedule everything is all out of wack nobody have the same days or getting weekends off.
Accountability across the board
These managers needs to hold everyone accountable across the board stop all this some people get coached but their favorites don't this is getting ridiculous.
Why can't full timers have two days off in a row?
That's the question. Home office finally decides to make a bunch of full time jobs, but no one can have two days off in a row.
So tired of this
Why is it that it's always the same people who do all the work and always the same people who smile and chat their way through their shift without even lifting their finger, and it's the later ones who always get ahead? How is that possible and how... — read more

Concern
Many people in my club have asked why specialist is getting paid $16, more than any other associate really just for doing exit door and self checkout. Is there someone out there can answer this question ...
What Is The 60 40 Rule
I was told at the club I'm working at that there is a 60 40 rule. In which as long as you work 60% of your time in your job code they can use you wherever they need you. Is this true or is it to prevent management from hiring more maintenance... — read more
Merch leads.
How do you go about discussing hourly rate with your associates. With our front end/carts getting $15 along with our click n pull associates my team has become super salty. I honestly don't blame them! My associates stock the club, work all hot... — read more

Let them enjoy it
I don’t understand how some people can be very vindictive towards others who have gotten a pay increase. Granted some may not deserve it in YOUR opinion - but it’s obvious to the company that it is deserved. I haven’t gotten a pay increase myself... — read more
Attention Marketing Leads!!!
Get out while you can. Sam’s Clubs only care about the $$$$. I put my 2 weeks today, an I’m out of Sam’s Club after 7 years of BS....
Glad I’m Gone!
Today would have made 15 years at this insane place. I’m so glad I got out a year and a half ago when I did. I’ve never been happier! Moral of the story is there is light at the end of the hell hole of a tunnel known as Wal-Mart Inc!
Can't make up their minds.
Last year, it was written in stone at the center of the universe, "Thou shall have a runner." If you didn't you were to call merchandising and get some. Now, it's "Thou shall not have a runner." And you must send any extra cashiers out to zone. ... — read more
