I do not know how it is in the other clubs but here is my experience. When we come in at 4 am the evening crew has not dropped for us. So the five of us who show up to stock are split up like this. One does click and pull. One does clothing. One works in snacks and candy. That leaves the two drivers to drop and stock all of grocery center section and hard lines.
By seven we are supposed to have worked out all hot / new , filled all outs , filled all end caps and pods , and put back into the steel all skids needing to go back up.
So in three hours we are supposed to do super human feats.
now this would not be bad if all the managers had the same expectations. ah but there is the rub.
One manager expects the floor to be 100 percent clear by seven , one expects no more than just a few skids left to do after 7 and yet another does not care if there are dozens of skids left after 7.
a couple managers understand that endcaps may not get filled with everything else to do. but one or two goes bonkers if every endcap is not 7 feet tall.
one day some super big wigs came to the club and said we need to get out of the mindset every thing needs full and that as long as there is enough to make it through the day not to waste time filling it. But we have a manager who still demands things be full.
each day we never know what the expectations are . it is very unsettling to work hard every day knowing you can never do enough
I have been with the company more than 20 years and now is the worst time ever to be here. I used to be able to judge for myself how much was enough. But now I can not know that especially with chaotic management never on the same page.
One thing is for certain ....new workers are never going to stay for long and this cesspool is going to stink worse every day until it closes down.
