Pros

E-commerce and catalog team. A bit earlier but no option to specify. The team was really solid. We got there through an acquisition and I was pleasantly surprised be the level of tech and the amount of challenges. Goo to have resources of walmart behind the work. A lot better than startup life!

Cons

A lot of legacy to deal with. Stores catalog was not suitable for using directly on the web. These days LLM can do wanders, I bet. But back then product descriptions were a challenge. Some teams rely heavily on consultants, which works for IT but doesn't work for real product development with real IP.

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.
