Hundreds crowd Fairbanks Sam's Club as store reopens for final days
The world's largest private employer did not disclose how many people would lose their jobs, but said some workers may be placed at other Walmart locations.
- WalMart announced Thursday they're closing 10 percent of their Sam's Club Warehouse stores. The move could impact as many as 11,000 employees.
The changes were made after a recent performance review, according to the company.
The announcement came on the same day that Walmart said it is boosting its starting salary for USA workers and handing out bonuses.
Sixty-three Sam's Club's locations are closing, including ones in Stanton and Sylmar.
The letter from Steve Orloski, Sam's Club market manager, was sent to Armstead and James Manning, of the New Jersey Department and Workforce Development.

Seven of these stores are in IL, reports WGN, many in the Chicago-area.
The restructuring comes the day after Walmart announced it will raise its starting hourly wages to $11.
"After a thorough review of our existing portfolio, we've chose to close a series of clubs and better align our locations with our strategy".
The Chicago Tribune noted that Sam's Club has been a huge boom for Chicago's grocery-industry for years with more business than other chains like Mariano's, Meijer, and Aldi.
In the wake of the closures, which included three stores in N.J., BJ's quickly released a statement to say they've had an "immediate" increase in membership - and to tell laid off Sam's Club employees they are hiring. Some of the stores will be repurposed into e-commerce distribution sites.
