Pros

Sam's Club offers a very flexible schedule and allows you to experience many facets of the retail industry. If you are a student it is ideal.

Cons

Sam's Club management looks down on students getting degrees. They will tell you that it's great to get an education. The next moment they will say that a degree will get you nowhere in the company. Many managers have no formal education themselves, so many times they feel threatened by young educated people. This company also pays its people very little and they take forever to promote hardworking individuals.

Pros

The pay is good and so are the benefits.

Cons

This is the worst job I have ever had. I made it 3 weeks before leaving and never coming back. They had me working 12 hour shifts when I was scheduled for 8 but couldn’t leave because I wasn’t finished with the large workload they piled on me. There was absolutely no teamwork, our manager just abandoned us so they could go hang out with their friends. There was no organization, no structure. 100% sure my manager never even knew my name. They had us breaking down pallets just to restack them. There are no consequences for management at all, they can basically do whatever they want and nobody is gonna do anything to stop it. If they're short they throw you into different departments with no training.
