"Our hope is that many associates at these clubs will choose to stay with the company via transfer and we'll begin working to make that happen. Hourly associates will continue receiving compensation for 60 days while they look for other opportunities in nearby clubs or Walmart stores," said Amy Wyatt-Moore, a senior manager with Sam's Club Corporate Communications. "If associates haven't transferred at the end of the 60 days, if eligible, they will receive severance."
