      Pros

      Super fun learning a skill as useful as cutting up meat. It was decent pay and you are pretty much on your own with minimal managment. Talking to customers who think your a baker was also fun.

      Cons

      Managment has no real idea about what your doing as far as it takes skill to cut meat and make it look good.

      Advice to Management

      At least understand it takes time to cut meat and make it look presentable. And having an incompetent team lead while not listening to the other employees is also a pain.

      Pros

      Loved going to work everyday, the associates are friendly they worked with my school schedule.

      Cons

      management was narrow minded at times.

      I worked at Sam's Club part-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      I loved working there. We were all like a big family

      Cons

      Even though I worked in the pharmacy we still had to stock merchandise in the isle and most of the times they were really heavy.

      Advice to Management

      Only girls worked there so they shouldn’t be stocking heavy merchandise
