Pros

The fresh leads advise we are but cogs in the machine, and the overwhelming workload due to short staffing doesn't matter, because we can't do all of it anyway, so why try?

Cons

Untrained leaders manufacture a culture of carelessness and failure to abide company standards or policies in their own work, yet when average employees take this lead they are targeted and terminated. It's just, really bad to work for Sam's club.

Pros

At the corporate level, the benefits and compensation are excellent. Colleagues at the producer level are standout teammates, talented, collaborative, and genuinely invested in the company's success. They consistently bring forward meaningful contributions and make the day-to-day work rewarding.

Cons

"Chaos" is not a word I'm using loosely. It's the word echoed across teams, including outside of Experience and Product. Leadership operates in a constant state of upheaval: frequent role changes, structural reorganizations, and strategy pivots that are implemented without any clear plan or consideration of cross-team impact. Incredibly talented people are let go as a result of poor leadership and people management decisions. There is no real culture of mentorship above the senior manager level. Leadership above the senior manager level made clear that mentorship isn't their responsibility and that you're expected to figure it out on your own, despite the company having training resources available. That disconnect is telling.
