Pros

My hours (time of day that is) Understanding and patient customers I was grateful to have a job during the Pandemic when so many lost theirs.

Cons

Management (and not to be really negative, but) - No training happens in store. We watch a video. And that's the extent of it. - When something is needed, it is always demanded, and in a rush. Then while in the middle of it, many times your yanked to help out in another of store (because of high turn over) , then they're frustrated original job's not done. -Double standard (when regional Mgr in store its one way, otherwise it's sometimes cut corners. -Total disrespect (certain mgrs talk down to you. Try to make you feel stupid, with the "I am better than you, I don't need to help you, talk to you, you are a subordinate, but I know it all attitude" -Could go on, but everyone hears the news how other places raising wages, incentives, etc.. while Walmart does nothing. I can be a stocker making say $14/hour, then go to a different department and go down to $11 or $12.. forget about my "exciting" 2% raise each year,.. somehow that'll get lost in the.shuffle..

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.
