Pros

There are not many pros to working for Sam's Club, but there are a few perks: Free Basic Membership OR discounted Plus Membership with the value of the Basic deducted Stock options after you qualify for benefits Health Insurance is decent Discount on produce

Cons

Corporate is very hands on with the stores, not permitting them to adapt to their local areas Constantly having new rules added with little to no warning in advance Constantly having to rearrange the store Gas Station Associates and others required to request for restroom breaks and fifteen minute breaks are often made to wait up to five hours or more to get the aid they asked for and are often yelled at for sending a reminder Managers tend to be very cold and unsympathetic to those under them Grassroots has been thrown to the wayside in favor for a suggestion box The managers love to go on and on about accountability, but are never themselves accountable for their actions Managers who do stand up for the employees often get canned later on under other pretenses

Pros

Good pay, less stressful than many kitchen jobs, guaranteed break times no matter what, good benefits

Cons

Communicating with managers is almost impossible. There are too many managers, and they are unaware of what the other ones do. The lead who writes my schedule changes constantly and I get a schedule that doesnt even make sense Ill go a week or more without seeing them (Different shifts they are at another store etc) and when I finally do talk to them they tell me to ignore what the app says. When I do that it dings me on points that affect how much PTO i accrue.
