Good pay considering it's retail, long-term job security, multiple avenues for advancement

Business Outlook

Pros

Family atmosphere, room for promotions if you are a go-getter, above-average pay for retail,flexible schedules, good benefits, bonuses, variety of job duties available

Cons

Pay caps based on position, overtime is rarely available, turnover rate is relatively high because the job pool for retail is shallow, raises are .60 per year maximum without a promotion. They try too hard to create a "diverse" workforce...even if it means hiring under-qualified individuals just to fill a gender or race quota.

Pros

Management did not micro-manage. Job roles were very black and white. Both management and co-workers were laid back but cared about customer service.

Cons

The scheduling at Sam's seems to be made by a schizophrenic. There was relatively little consistency in my schedule the whole time I was there. I was also not allowed to work as a full time employee. I would have probably stayed here if I could have worked full time with some kind of semi-predictable schedule
