Pros

I enjoyed working for them because they have good company values. Managers were rewarded during the year based on the store performance.

Cons

Must become an walmart employee for more than five years to be considered for a manager position. There is growth potential but it will take a while before your performance is recognized.

Pros

- if full time, get benefits for health eye and dental I believe - encourage people to apply for higher up positions - if you have been working there for a couple fo years, its almost impossible for them to kick the employee out no matter how rude

Cons

- cutting down hours and shrinking personel in departments to meet budgets = more work - no proper training provided, sort of throw you in the job and expect you to learn - usually hire people in desperation and/or immigrants who do not complain about the workload - managers are not very nice

Pros

Since you are part of a larger coporation, you do have the ability to move to different departments and even different states.

Cons

I do enjoy the team atmosphere, but feel that climbing the internal ladder is harder than i had originally anticipated. Also, the benefits suck.
