Need to rotate all team leaders and Mgrs every 12 months!

Assistant manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

With Wal-Mart, there is great job security. The health benefits are good when compared to similar industries.

Cons

Need to rotate team leaders and managers inside the Club every 12 months to keep leadership fresh and to force leaders to grow outside there "box". Need to allow managers to take personal days when needed. Managers have to pretend to be sick when they need a personal day! Why would a company treat their management in this manner? After the extended long hours managers work, dedication and social sacrifice, managers should be treated better. You would think that a company that has been around as long as Sam's Club (25+ years) would have this figured out by now!

Business Outlook

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.
