"Sam's Club is great starting point into retail services, there is a lot to learn and they are willing to help you achieve your best."

Member Services Manager

"My recent Club Manager was not the right fit for the club. She had personal baggage she brought back when she received a promotion. Overall, Sam's Club was and is a great place to work. Like any job, you must have the right people in the right positions."

Sam's Club Employee

"Unfortunately SAMs Walmart is NOT what Sam Walton made, the Upper Mgt at each club needs to be extremely good in order to make the environment good for everyone else, otherwise it just becomes a high turn over shop for all other levels of employment at that particular club."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Go back to the days when Sam Walton was in control. What a shame that you treat your people the way that you do. For being a multi-million dollar company they are so disorganized and will never be number one in the warehouse chain."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I would listen to the associates more. I would give people a chance even if they aren't qualified enough for a position. The associates are the ones who deal with members all day and they know more or less what people want. I wouldpay attention to my associates more when they say they're bored and not just give them busy work."
