They cannot coach you for not getting plus and credit as long as you are asking every member every time. Do you job, if they coach you; make sure they acknowledge that you are asking every member every time and I promise it will be overturned by Open Door. CM would not dare not overturn as long as you are doing your job. Now the Frontend Manager can be held accountable .
It's a store. Stores sell stuff. Asking members if they want plus or credit is part of the job. It isn't that big a deal. Let the supervisor talk go in one ear and out the other. They won't fire you, no matter what they say. And if you really hate it that much, there are other jobs in the store.
My answer is, "we'll see what we can do" and we either hit the numbers or we don't.
PT cashiers going to school. They don't care. They have no incentive. They don't even care about the Sam Share.
You're all lucky. Our mo--nic club mgr makes everyday a plus challenge. If they hit their goal of plus and credit for the quarter, 10 grand bonus
Dang, we must be hurtin' bad. Losing the battle and know it. RGM's & Market Managers just threaten and eliminate. They are the worst at everything except blackmail and retailiation. My club manager is too scared to question anything anymore. It's a sick and twisted place to be.
Omg this is so accurate it’s crazy how they threaten take you aside and brain wash about plus and credit. Where the f--- is digital in all this what does your marketing team do all day. What about the membership desk when the members sign up. Talk about a joke let’s have this register setup 6 lanes and still have to sell with lines back to receiving.
Could be a great place to work if not for the pressure of selling plus and credit. Credit is a joke we are told to say WOW you’ve been approved like they’ve just won the lottery, then when they get the bill and 20% to 30% interest what a joke. It’s sad when Sam Walton was alive he never would have approved this type of ripping off the poor people. If you live honest, teat with respect. Take care of your associates, and most of all have integrity you will win and prosper in wealth.
Totally agree with this supposed technology and digital they still doing it the old fashioned way, cashiers selling because they can’t figure out the digital piece of it themselves.
Yup you betcha Costco just sells merch and nothing else and they most certainly do not require their associates to do anything else.
What's that they have 3 types of membership Gold, Executive and Business. And a credit card too!
I am curious as to what penalties a club faces for not getting the 25?
Sam’s is focused in the wrong way on Plus, credit focus is okay because the incentive is there. They need to find a better way to make Plus attractive (like Prime at Amazon) so that it sells itself. Nobody wants to work under that Plus pressure— get rid of the Plus practice at the registers and use your fancy electronics and automation Sam’s to get your quotas — stop badgering your workers and sending our moral low constantly because your Plus quota is never good enough. Sam’s Club wants to get rid of FT positions with tech but yet they keep spinning that broken record with the Plus. Dumb, plain dumb. Keep on with the outdated Sam’s cheer too — that makes a lot of people cringe because the cheer is not authentic in most cases.
it used to be fun now it’s stressful. We can’t just talk to members and have fun. They always waning us to sell credit or plus. Members get p-ss-d and sometimes yell I don’t want it. My opinion if members want it they would ask. Most members don’t spend enough to earn their money back. As far as credit if you don’t get 4 you get penalized if you don’t get 25 plus your a bad club. This is why Costco has succeeded and Sam’s has not.
