Pros

Great pay, but this is because you are supposed to put close to 80 hours a week to get anywhere. If you want work life balance, be prepared for not getting promoted or visible. Sure they are a family company and understand that kids need to be picked up, but it is at the expense of your career.

Cons

80 hours/week is expected. Also, they throw people at their tools and processes and pay well because nothing is working (finance) and you are supposed to put together a bunch of manual reporting, fudge with data to get it right, etc. At the same time they are not really investing in tool upgrade unless it is company wide. I would have expected company of this size, especially ecommerce division to be a bit better prepared to handle data.

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
