How many of the morning backroom associates have to clean up after the Merchandisers. Bale all of their cardboard, bag up plastic, drive out with the lift and help them bring all of their pallets and garbage to receiving, etc. Just curious, because... — read more
Audit!
Is it odd that we have to make it easier for a 3rd party to come in and count our inventory? I literally have been doing the counting in the freezer for every box of chicken, making sure there's the correct amount of bags in each box. Of course this... — read more
Do you document everything?
How many times have I heard this – “Document everything” and I knew it needed to be done, however, I always kind of ignored it and didn’t find the time to deal with it. I was too lazy to do it because I didn't think I would be in a situation where I... — read more
Snakes everywhere
You can't trust nobody they have snakes lurking everywhere at Sams club waiting to throw you under the bus so they can get ahead smhhhhhhhh
This shouldn't be tolerated
It really shouldn't be allowed to yell at and berate employees all day every day with members around. It's demeaning, it's disrespectful, and it's abusive. I feel like some people work their way to a position of a manager just so they could vent... — read more
bereavement
Does Sam's Club pay for bereavement leave?
Manager 40hr week
So now management works 4 10hr days and get 3 days off. 2 days off in a row and some all 3 in a row yet we have long term associates that can’t even get 2 days off in a row. That’s c**p!
Me@Samsclub app
Wow. The NEW me@samsclub is so awesome. NOT. It's a freaking joke. Walmart has been using this app for over a year. The same day we got their hand me down app they got a new one that allows them to do their covid–19 screening and clock in and out on... — read more
Good people can't last long here
Simply put, Sam’s is not an atmosphere where someone who has no experience with backstabbing, brown nosing, manipulating and the like can endure for a long time. I was shocked by the kind of people I met here (there are always exceptions) and I... — read more
People who retire here
I admire people who tell me they’ve been here for over 20 years. Wow. I can’t even imagine working here for so long. How did some manage that? I can barely stop myself from quitting until I have found another job, and I have only been here for a... — read more
I feel sorry for the new people
Training at Sam's has gone from decent to half–assed to nonexistent in the past decade. I look at some of the new folks as they wander around confused and having no idea what to do and how they're ignored by the people who should be helping them if... — read more

CIM Labels
I am so proud of my team. The entire reserve steel has every single pallet in the club labeled and binned with CIM labels. Every water pallet. Every paper pallet. Everything. Kudos!
People who are promoted to management
It is not clear to me how some manage to be promoted to managers here? Judging by their work in a managerial position, I clearly doubt that they used to be hard workers and that they are really qualified to be promoted into management. I wish I had... — read more
What are my options?
I am a fresh lead in my club and recently received a small inheritance that will allow me to continue college full time and finish within a year or so. Can anyone tell me what the process is when wanting to drop down to p/t status? Are there fewer... — read more
New question at screening!!
Why are we asked if we’ve been vaccinated for Covid–19? Where is the non of your business button? This is a violation of HIPA!!!
Two policies.
This company has two policies. 1) If it ain't broke, fix it anyway. 2) Move a problem from one place to another, and say problem solved.
Am I the only one happy working for sams?
Minor gripes here and there, but overall happy with my job, club, managers, my roll as merch lead. Why you guys so angry?
When is our next Sam’s Share????
Thank you in advance!!!
How much did Sam's disappoint your expectations?
When I got the job here, I didn’t have any high expectations, but again I thought the company was a lot more serious than the company I moved from here. I expected that as a much larger company, they would treat their employees at least a little more... — read more
Time off question
Say you take 2 weeks off aka 80 hours but you can only cover 60 hours. Will the remaining 20 hours be unpaid or will it be 20 hours taken from your ppto?
Do they deserve 2 weeks notice?
I got an offer for a new job and of course I accepted it without much thinking because it can’t be much worse than here. After 7 years here and the constant pressure lately, I just couldn't stand it anymore. Despite everything, I gave 2 weeks notice... — read more
Marketing Salaried Positiin
What are they doing with the Marketing Teamleads since this new Salaried position came about? Anybody know the amount of hours worked in this new position?
Pay raises seem so random
Who decides which positions will get a raise and which will be screwed over once again?
Is Sam’s the most stressful place you’ve worked?
I changed a few jobs before I came to Sam’s and this is definitely the most stressful place I’ve worked so far. Previous jobs were also in the retail sector, so it is not a matter of the sector but of the company. I am so overwhelmed with work that I... — read more
Attendance / bonus pay
Anyone have the details on how the new ATTENDANCE POLICY / incentive bonus are now tied together?
Dress code
When did this company stop having a dress code? We have female team leads in our club wearing leggings every day managers wearing shirts that you can see their mid drift. Managers with jeans with holes in them and T-shirts on. The list goes on and on... — read more

Staffing
Walmart corporate put out a press release stating that Walmart is going to promote and hire more full-time associates and have 8-12 teams working together with a team leader set days off and set hours. I'm confused bc when it comes to our club we... — read more
Backroom
Is backroom going to get a raise since they claim we're on the same level as team leads but start off at 15 like everyone else ?
Managing multiple bosses
I know, it’s not something that can be changed unless I find a job in a small grocery store, but lately I’ve been really exhausted having to think about how my work performance will be viewed by the many supervisors I have. There are a lot of them... — read more
Too many years here?
I don't even know how I managed to work here for so many years. I didn’t plan to stay that long, but time passed quickly. This is not a company where an ordinary employee needs to spend so many years. I watch young people come, don’t stay around for... — read more

Always have to clean up somebody else sc--w up
Why is it everytime you change departments as a team lead managers comes to you with all these expectations but yet they been letting the department go straight to the trash can but you have to clean it up smhhhhhhhh.
Covid Pay
Stop paying people to stay home, it's being abused while some honest workers never call in.
30 + year Sam's Club Associate in CPU
We have a 30 year associate working CPU who never dispenses orders. He purposely mess up when he is forced to do so. So our supervisor way of handling this issue is to not have him dispense. This is so irritating and unfair. I get it he has been in... — read more
These shirts are so comfortable in hot weather
Legacy sick hours. It has been awhile since I have read any posts regarding this topic. I am assuming that there have been no issues using these hours and the managers know how to help out the associates.
