Business outlook
Pros
stability, growth, low prices mean they are better positioned in this economy. locations all over the world offer limitless opportunities. fairly good benefits for management. very good cheap medical insurance. employee discount is good. training program is thorough and builds confidence to be an assistant manager.
Cons
really low morale for hourly employees. often you seem disconnected from the hourly employyes when you are a manager because of the structure. incredibly high turnover amongst hourly employees because they are typically paid very low wages and often don't qualify for benefits because the system at walmart doesn't allow them to work enough to get benefits.
