so now they decided to send in an army .... what a joke!
Company driven by fear
It's enough for me just to see my manager and get an anxiety attack immediately. He is certainly not paid to make the best employees (who are satisfied despite being paid little) leave the company. He is paid to keep such people, I guess. Still... — read more
next sam share
does anyone know when is the next Sam share? we should have a calander with all the dates
The infamous "bare minimum"
I tell myself every day that this time I will not invest so much effort and that I will work the bare minimum. However, at the end of the day I come home even more tired than the day before because it seems that a person needs to have a special... — read more
Overworked and underpaid!
Just seent that white castles be hiring people to start for $18.50 for a hour!
Peace out su-kas!
Time to blow this popsicle stand. Management is awful, McDonald’s is hiring for more than most positions pay in Sam’s clubs. Newer associates are making more than those who have been around for years. They expect us to do our jobs and the jobs of... — read more
401k
So what's really going on with our 401k. I'm in the process of purchasing a home so I've been checking my balance quiet often and within this month alone there been $500 pulled from my money.
The responsibilities and workload in the pharmacy have become ridiculous
Meetings, metrics, shots, conference calls, plans of action, and terrible horrible incompetent management. Nobody even wants to apply here anymore. We can't keep pharmacists or technicians. I never thought I would say this, but It's time to... — read more
Lost prevention
What are other clubs doing about lost prevention? It seems in my club it is non-existent anymore and has become a real problem.
Total rewards
This may be a d-mb question... When I look on total rewards at my hourly rate it says total hourly rate including differentials and premiums... I know I have no differentials.. What does it mean by premiums... ?
Is your club firing for attendance?
Our store has always been lazy on attendance and let people get many points or second chances. In the past 2-3 weeks, we've been firing people left and right.
The ethics of all
Our club will do anything to get plus and credit. Lying to members . Member sat up grades. They will tell the members any and everything to get them. The moral is the lowest it gas ever been. They can't keep employees. New hires quit with in 2... — read more
Poor scheduling
It is obviously very difficult for our management to come up with effective schedules. Do they not know how to do it or are they just too lazy to make it right? There had never been so many schedule related issues in any of the companies I've... — read more
Covid positive
How long does someone have to be off if tested positive for Covid? The wonderful one Walmart app sucks and can’t get an answer there
REJECTED PPTO

How's your 401k doing today?
Thanks Brandon. You successfully and singlehandedly destroyed America and the American dream
Se-ual harassment got em fired
One coach, one lead meat cutter fired for se-ual harassment. Another team lead quit. So don’t tell me it can’t be done. All you need is irrefutable proof. Ohio. No further comments.
Rob Walton buys Denver Broncos for over 4 billion dollars.
Happy to see not everyone associated with wal-mart is struggling like the rest of us during these trying times.
The difference in pay for newbies and long time employees is embarrassing
That difference is so small that every day, while looking for a new job, I regret staying here for more than a decade. They still expect us to help them and correct their mistakes. Unfortunately, as far as I've noticed, there seems to be a similar... — read more
Gas, Food, Utilities, Housing- We need a raise.

Self Driving Trucks In Dallas Clubs
You think you didn't have enough freight before. Just wait. The only good thing about this is you won't have a rude driver who shows up late and then wants to be unloaded immediately. Plus the autonomous trucks won't destroy the trucker bathroom 10... — read more
Freight Push
Kath and other execs keep saying they want to raise our revenue passed 100B towards 150B in the next few years. I feel like the freight Push is just a ploy to increase sales - every category is overskued with random items, getting trucks with 6-12 of... — read more
How big is the will to form a union at this point?
To be completely clear I’m not pro or against unionizing and I wouldn’t like for this thread to turn into that sort of debate. However, one thing is for sure, there was never this much union talk at the company. Has the will to form a union really... — read more
Yes, it is the same in all of the Clubs
We have a skeleton crew at all times, no steel space what so ever and yet the trucks just keep on coming. We are at maximum capacity in the backroom and on the floor. Why would anyone run a business like this? Not to mention our pay rates not keeping... — read more
Took my PROTECTED PTO WITHOUT PAY
I Put in PROTECTED PTO and the system took it out but I was not paid for it ! Who do I call ???
Drop List as punishment
When the crew cant get everything down that was dropped what is the logical thing to do?? Of course drop even more the next day. Managers believing that overloading you will make you be motivated to do even more . This does not motivate !! It... — read more
What is going on?
I have worked for Sam's for more than 15 years. It is the worst it has ever been with less coverage, managers quitting left and right, teamleads quitting and can not be replaced, behind on trucks more than ever before , no room in the steel. is this... — read more
Block schedules
Whoever had the idea for block schedules was a mo--n. It works for the team leads but def not the associates
We don't have the BA--S to unionize
The company knows this and as a result treats us all like garbage. Everybody wants willing workers right now. Time to get the he-l out. I'm out of here. Good luck to anybody who both lacks the ba--s to unionize also the ba--s to get the he-l... — read more
Books
When are we going to get rid of books? We keep getting in huge pallets every week, they don’t sell. The 3rd party that stocks them is horrible.. our backroom associates don’t have time to pull returns and the 3rd party guy said it isn’t his job. Our... — read more
Coaches
Why don't home office make a CBL for Coaches to treat everyone's job in the building like they are important. Why look down on the people that practicly help you keep your cushy management job. Cart guys jobs are more important then anything.. no... — read more
Forced to do your old Job...?
Recently left the Backroom and moved to Produce, lost $2.50 an hour going from level 7 to 2. Backroom associate quits and they put me back there. Is there a Policy against this? Or are my hands tied?
Backroom pay
Can someone explain to me why backroom does all that extra work yet you can push carts for the same pay? This can’t make sense to anyone right?
I hope there are still some good managers here
I intend to leave because of the manager. I stayed because I thought that such a person would not be able to stay in that position for long, but I was wrong. Sam’s seems to have full confidence in the worst managers who wouldn’t last long in other... — read more
All the good ones are leaving!
It’s a shame that a handful of associates and “managers” can cause good workers to quit or move to other departments. Why is home office so focused on MX scores instead of looking at turnover rates and finding out why the few good people are... — read more
Facing unrealistic expectations
I don't know what's more stressful - trying to achieve all the unrealistic expectations that are imposed on employees here, or having to deal with the boss who is convinced that these are not unrealistic expectations at all. What is your tactic to... — read more
New hires
New hires coming in at higher pay than co workers and being told not to talk about it. Is this legal?
