Pros

It paid SOME of the bills and it was local.

Cons

UNDER PAID and OVER WORKED (Under Evaluation once a year) you only get a pay raise once a year the minimum 35 cents and the most 45-50 cents but there is allowed the 60 cent raise BUT NO one gets that ! You have to be a perfect employee (they tell you) but its a lie they STILL won't give it . Still expected to do more.They keep you poor financially and they hurt the economy by doing so. They keep the poor, poor ! NEVER get paid for your over time. They make you cut your hours off your shift the next day. The management is young and immature,have no people skills and inexperienced . Sams club has no business putting young people in charge when they haven't experience in that field or the respect to the older adults.They tell you they respect the individual-they don't. A 22 year old telling and giving a 40 year old advice on "how to do their job" and talking with no respect Even though the older person has been doing their job for 14 years and they just hired this 22 year old to run the department ??? Something is definitely wrong with this Wal-Mart Corporation when you have to hire young people. Why because you don't want to pay someone with experience the right money?

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.
