Pros

Always busy in terms of workload, and new items are being introduced. The employees are focused on serving the members. There is a great deal of accountability in terms of performance on all levels. Employees are encouraged to be creative and arrive at new ideas. Employees are friendly and building relationships is easy.

Cons

Not enough full time positions, most are part time. Lines are long at the checkout. Managers are slow to respond. At times there is a lot of micro-managing. Communication is lacking from teamleads to workers. Often there are not enough employees to run the store efficiently. Employees are asked to work in positions that they are not trained in. More interested in quantity than quality in service, products and employee expectations.

Pros

Some of the best reasons to work at Sam's club included job security, friendly work environment, and quality management. Overall it was a great place to work.

Cons

The downsides were what was demanded of you, too often managers dumped large amounts of work on you without really knowing how much work you had to do.
