Pros

The managers at my store are Very Nice. The hours are conducive to my schedule. The people I work with are great. I get a LOT of walking done in my day. You accrue PPTO (Protected Personal Time Off) as you go which protects you from having to use points when you need to call off. You get 5 points. Which is a lot if you are committed to your job.

Cons

The pay is only $14 an hour. I've been there 5 years and I'm making the same money the new hires make. This is frustrating. For you new hires, You miss a day you get a point. So DONT call off until you have accrued enough PPTO (personal Protected Time Off) to cover your day. The new kids now don't realize you are automatically fired if you miss 5 days and don't use your PPTO. So don't just not show up! No call no show is 2 points. So if you just decide not to show up for 3 times and don't call in. You are FIRED. Also, the theft has increased a lot which makes our jobs in SCO more demanding.

Pros

Keeps you busy so the day goes by faster. Can offer some physical exorcise while unloading trucks, and more depending on what department you stock.

Cons

Getting everything assigned out and stocked can sometimes be difficult if they pull you to another department to help there temporarily. Customers will likely take up a quarter of your time as well. The manager over you will likely complain if you don't get everything stocked, regardless if you were pulled away from your department. I've stayed hours over my shift just to finish many times so I wouldn't have to listen to it.

Pros

I'm a EXPERIENCED WORKER. I ✨️ don't have to be told what to do in my area. So management leaves me alone. The pro of this job is that they BELIEVE IN ME.

Cons

In my opinion I believe that Walmart should go back to DEPT. MANAGERS. Because Lead positions tend to stand around and not show by example 🙄! I have been in sales all of my life. MY COMPANY 💖 needs to go back too Merit raises. MY COMPANY 💖 gave lazy workers the same pay almost too my pay. THAT'S NOT RIGHT 😕 OR FARE! Merit raises makes your employees 🙄 work FOR THE COMPANY HARDER 🙄 👏. St.#0551 my name is Laura Holland and I am a very exceptional worker in my opinion. I have always loved my job 💓. Be more like PUBLIX 👍 and exceptional worker's will be there for the company.
