Pros

The work is brainless, so it's easy money; If you have pulse, you are qualified to work at walmart. The 10% discount card is very nice, especially on big purchases. Almost all of the associates/management were very pleasant to work with.

Cons

Things can get a little bit stressful, both when management is stressed aswell as when customers are stressed. (--comparable to all retail establishments.) As mentioned above, the job is easy money. However, "you get what you're paid for" so.... it makes sense that you wouldn't get a huge deal of compensation for such an easy job, and Walmart definitely takes advantage of that. "Store-Set" is a time in which the SWAT team, (a team of rude and errogant associates who hate their jobs) raids a newly constructed Wal-Mart to over-see and ensure proper layout of the merchandise before the store's opening. This is a tedious and AWFUL procedure in which many new associates furiously quit their job after being berated and belittled by the SWAT team-- Very unimpressed with the way this is conducted.

Pros

Very flexible with schedules and will help when you need time away, management is always willing to help you find the best way to satisfy and scheduling conflicts that may occur.

Cons

With a large associate base things tend to get a little hairy with upper level management. With such a large group of management there tends to be a lot of conflict, and when your store manager is not around things tend to get a little hairy while others think they need to take control which leads to issues and problems.
