Thread regarding Sam's Club layoffs

Fair or easy way to get rid of disability?

Company is claiming that they want seasoned managers with experience. Then will someone explain to me how I have 24 years of retail experience 7 of which has been with Sam's club. I have been in every manager position within the club, but yesterday I was let go, and a manager that has been a manager with no previous experience and has been in position less than 6 months gets placed into a new club? The only comment that the Market Manager would give me is that the had no position for me.

So....a little more background. In 7 years, I have never been coached or had any black marks on my career. I was seriously hurt last year at work, 7 1/2 months ago and am still treating for it.

So I am asking...

Anybody but me see more than a coincidence?

GMs get paid by club volume level not tenure.

You get what you pay for, all tenured and high salary managers are the target, so they can hire younger and cheaper help. Sam's is desperate for survival unfortunately this is not going to help their ultimate demise. Costco has and will continue to dominate big box retail, Sam's Club should bow out gracefully and stop destroying and impacting the lives of people who have been committed & loyal.

You are making too much money. They can get a cheaper model.

I see it as an easy way to get rid of problem managers as well as little experience managers as well
