Pros

Sam's club is a decent place to work full time, employee and managers alike are generally easy to get along with.

Cons

Cons are that starting pay is enticing but moving up doesn't pay all that well, till you hit store manager.

Pros

Good Pay, free membership card

Cons

Poor management, constant changing of rules and gossip. Also, the customers are the worst part, especially near a ghetto area. Very hard to get Full-time status, but they will let you work full-time hours for 12 weeks then cut you down to nothing so they can bypass the policy of making a full-timer if they work full-time hours more then 12 weeks. However, depends where you work, the last club was the worst but I worked in other clubs where these problems are not that bad.

Pros

I am given opportunities to grown and share my love of photography. I am valued by the Managers and our Members and get a lot of job satisfaction in addition to the occasional hug. I do not mind getting up and going to work and that makes my life happy.

Cons

There is not a lot of growth in the photo area which could be a deterrent if I were younger and wanted to advance. There are plenty of advancement opportunities at Sam's Club, but you would need to move out of the lab and I am happy where I am.
