Pros

Good work-life balance. Flexible working time. High quality/amount of data which allows to do all kinds of R&D and see amazing results which could have a significant impact on Walmart's market performance.

Cons

Data Scientists here are expected to do end-to-end projects, from data collection to modeling, implementation and deployment. Also, multitasking is required. More and more people coming in and rooms/spaces/parking are limited.

Thanks for leaving us a review – and it’s great to hear from one of our Data Scientists at Walmart Labs. I'm glad you’re having a positive experience here and enjoying a healthy work-life balance, including flexible working time. We strive to be an organization that empowers our associates, giving them the needed flexibility to live their best lives, both inside and outside of the organization. We have had enormous growth this year and as we continue to grow, things can get a bit crowded. I can assure you the Space Planning team has this on their radar and are working on improving the situation. - Bobbie G., VP Human Resources, Walmart Labs

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.
