Pros

-Easy to get hired -Competitive pay for retail -They are flexible with your hours -Ten percent discount -Lots of people work there, so your specific manager will have 15 or 20 other people to worry about, so if you are doing your job correctly, they won't on your butt about anything and you can just 'blend in' -Overall simple, easy job

Cons

-You have to do time off requests about 3 weeks in advance, and they do not like it if you try to switch schedules with anyone or try to get time off without the 3 week notice -Sometimes communication is missing within management - manager ''A'' will tell you ''Stay in the toy department to help customers and stock, don't leave no matter what!'' and then manager ''B'' will walk by and tell you ''We need you in the grocery side, for the next hour or so'' . Then manager ''A'' comes over and says ''Why did you leave?!?'' -Customers tend to have a negative attitude towards Wal-Mart and take it out on you (which makes me wonder why they shop there!?!)

Pros

At wal-mart, it's pretty easy to advance and to pad your resume. The breaks and discounts are decent, and the company is very important to many employees that I know.

Cons

At wal-mart, your enjoyment of your job depends completely on your manager. The good ones make the job decent, and the bad ones make you wonder what criteria they use to become a manager.
