Pros

Sam's Share is given annually, coworkers are friendly and professional, the customers are pleasant most of the time, and at times it seems like a small, local grocery store that takes care of its customers.

Cons

Absolutely miserable job if you're a cashier. Unprofessional management and no incentive for the amount of pressure they put on you to sell Plus memberships and credit lines. They give balloons for each renewal or Plus you sell, then you're required to give them back at the end of the day. They see their cashiers as numbers. Every week they tell you what you do wrong and if you don't improve they talk to you rudely. Will not transfer you to another department if you don't succeed at selling memberships. Stressful, low pay for the work administered, constant lifting, and overall a miserable experience.

Pros

Good pay, less stressful than many kitchen jobs, guaranteed break times no matter what, good benefits

Cons

Communicating with managers is almost impossible. There are too many managers, and they are unaware of what the other ones do. The lead who writes my schedule changes constantly and I get a schedule that doesnt even make sense Ill go a week or more without seeing them (Different shifts they are at another store etc) and when I finally do talk to them they tell me to ignore what the app says. When I do that it dings me on points that affect how much PTO i accrue.
