17 years with the company, relocating my family seven times to five different states and then they eliminated my position, restructuring the corporate divisions, downsizing the staff, eliminating sbu's, sending over 2,000 management personnel out to the dislocated employment line; my senior age causing me to be disadvantaged for any potential employment since no company would want to employee somebody who was now at retirement age. - District Manager Walmart Employee Review

Pros

the people; the company employs local people who are just trying to survive and make a living, and getting to work with and work for those people is a great joy

Cons

it was a great company created by a great man, but since his death it has resorted to chaos management by profit-only, numbers-driven executives who are totally disconnected from the store operations where the business actually takes place; no regard for the employees, for their lives, their time, their contributions; they're treated as just another machine, another line on the asset column, expendable and in tolerable.

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.
