Sams club
The best sams club jobs are the management ones. It's like they specifically designed a pay structure so that only the managers are getting paid enough. The job that you do and the pay does not match and I hate the sams club for this.

Hello everyone. I've been a Walmart associate for the last 2 years and I'm loving it! The only problem I have is the location of my store and I can't find an affordable place to stay in the area. Every day, I have to drive for like 2 hours in total, just to come and go back home. My wife, on the other hand, is a Sams Club associate and she's also loving it too. I'm planning to apply for a job there because it's much more closer to our home. It's like a 10 minute drive and she has a much better life than I do 😀 I don't know how I'm supposed to go from Walmart to Sams Club though. I mean if I want a description of a job I can always go to Sams careers, I know that. But I don't want just that, I also want to read about people's experiences there. So if there is any people on here who work for Sam's Club, can you please tell me which positions at the Sams would make you say 'This is one of the best Sams Club jobs!' PSA: My wife told me I should go for CPU.

Hey ppl. I'm a former Walmart associate who became a Sam's Club associate 3 months ago and I'm here to help you guys gain a perspective of what it's like to be a Sam's Club associate by publishing this post. I've seen some of the Walmart associates are interested in Sam's Club jobs so I decided, why not help the associates who are curious to know what's going on at this place? So let's start with this, working at Sam's Club is not much different or better than working at Walmart. Let me repeat that again for the people in the back: Sam's Club jobs are extremely similar to Walmart jobs. This might sound pretty obvious to so many of you people but I've seen a lot of people who worked for both, and they exaggerate Sam's Club so much, that it got to a point where it started to bother me. They are just selling untrue dreams to people and giving them hope for no reason. It's not like we are chilling in this place for the half of the shift and we are helping extremely kind, caring, and understanding members for the other half. No. People are rude and stupid here too and you will face very very similar challenges that you face at Walmart. I can't lie, I thought dealing with people, and when I say people I mean the customers aka members, would be a lot easier. I thought that because people actually pay to get in here. So the membership should decrease the number of people that you deal with, and since you deal with fewer and fewer people, you would get better and calmer conversations with customers aka members. But unfortunately, that was not the case for me. The arrogance of these people is hilarious. I'm gonna be honest, I thought the customers at Walmart were arrogant just because they bought the most buyable items, but I realized they were nothing compared to Sam's Club members. I swear these people make you feel like you are working at a 5 star hotel. Cause they expect the same service level of a 5 star hotel. Just because you pay 50-100$ per year, you don't get to be a billionaire you id^^t. Anyway, let's stay on track. I also thought I would be in a more well organized working environment in terms of not mixing the duties of one associate with another. For example, I never wanted to do anything that wasn't in my job description but that wasn't the case. And I realized I was naive to think that it was gonna be different. So if there is any of you who are thinking that the problem is actually your Store Manager or your Team Lead, they are not. It's the same at other stores and other companies as well. I witnessed it personally.

The communication between managers and associates at Sam’s Club is so bad that it’s actually the number one factor that hurts the company the most (in my humble opinion). I can give you so many examples, but I will give just one. I’m a meat cutter at Sam’s Club, and I love my job. I think it’s one of the best Sam’s Club jobs if it’s not the best. It doesn’t feel like a burden to me that I have to go to Sam’s Club six days a week. The associates that I’m working with are the best and I fortunately haven’t had any problems with members so far. So, it sounds all good right? But no. At the beginning of the last week, I cut my finger a little bit and I couldn’t hold the kn^^e properly as a result of it. So as you can imagine it affected my performance and the meats that I cut looked slightly different than usual, because you know, it’s not easy when you can’t hold the kn^^e properly with your preferred hand. Anyway, the club manager at my club loves to just inspect different areas around the club, and boy does he love to talk. He can talk to you for minutes, and those minutes can become hours easily. He doesn’t even have to know you, you just need to exist and act like you listen. That would be more than enough for him. As you can imagine, when someone loves talking this much, gossip comes with it automatically. He is the type of person who would talk about a problem with everyone but the source of the problem. I’m telling all of this because this time, I was his victim. He saw the meat that I cut and didn’t say anything to me, but he walked around the entire club talking bad about me. Complaining about the shapes of the meat, saying that we need high quality people who know how to do their job etc. He was also kind enough to complain to my meat lead about me. Thank God that my meat lead is actually a decent human being who already knows all the stuff that I just told you about, but still, he had to come up and check me out. At first, he didn’t see my finger and he said I should be more careful with cutting because recently I didn’t cut properly, and he continued with me not being in any trouble, he just wanted to give me a heads up about it. Then I showed him the status of my finger and he spilled the tea. He said he mostly doesn’t care about what the club manager says but this time he also noticed a difference, that’s why he needed to come talk to me. But I kinda disagree. Because no matter how much you don’t care about what someone says about your associate or your friend, you are eventually influenced by the negative words. Anyway, he apologized, and he said I should have just used PTO. So the moral of the story is, just talk to the person that you think causes the problem, and your problem will stay much smaller.

I didn’t know it would make this much difference but it did. I was a former walmart employee and I quit because of the treatment that I was getting there. On the other hand, my wife is a cashier at the Sam’s club in our city, and she’s been telling me to apply for one of the sams club jobs obsessively. I always told her no because what difference would it make right? It’s just another company of the waltons. It can’t be good. Anyway I eventually got depressed as a jobless man after a few days (as you normally do) and I wanted to give it a try. I started 2 weeks ago as a stocker and I couldn’t be happier. The associates that I’m working with are the best people that I could work with. My wife passed the message to me, and I’m passing it to you, if you are someone struggling at your job at walmart because you don’t feel valued, then you have to apply for one of the sams club jobs.
