When we are given very little information about that is the final goal of these changes, than one couldn’t be too surprised what rumors are circulating at the speed of light. The secrecy has created a stressful atmosphere in which little of us operate normally. Even more, it’s unfair and i would also say unethical and immoral to be kept in the dark. If the company is changing, isn’t it our right to decide whether we see ourselves in that story. On the other hand when did they ever care about ethics and moral,right?

Life is definitely not fair at any given time.
Sadly it's ever revolving door or leadership will be its demise.
Every new leader, on all levels of the company, think they can do it "better", do it "their" way. And none of them dare to think about the core of our business. Our people.
Costco has never changed its overall vision/model which is why they have and will remain #1 in the warehouse model industry.
Sam's has changed its vision/model so many times it's no wonder they don't have the commitment and loyalty they once had.
Technological advances should compliment a business and many have done this for Sam's. However, once you lose the focus of your people, you are on the path of uncertainty and eventual dissolution. Sam's future model is not about our people....or any people at all. Get used to the gradual elimination of jobs here. Sam's future is all about automation and the robots they want working for them. Stay as long as you can stomach or find another company that cares about their people if that's what you want.
What led you to believe anything in life was fair?
