Pros

Working in the corporate office, you have a great chance to see how all the business functions work together. You get a lot of responsibility as a new employee to make managerial decisions. It is an excellent low-payed education that beats any MBA in learning.

Cons

80 hour weeks. Lots of politics in the buying departments. Focus on outsourcing manufacturing work to save the customer a dime (while the customer loses their job).

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.
