We offer competitive hourly wages ranging from $19.00 to $27.00, with additional premiums applicable in certain circumstances such as schedule, season, or specific duties performed. Along with competitive pay, Sam's Club provides a comprehensive benefits package tailored for the well-being of our associates. Benefits include health, vision, and dental coverage; financial programs like 401(k) plans and stock purchase options; paid time off including parental leave and jury duty; and other supports such as disability insurance and adoption expense reimbursement.
