Pros

Stable work environment that translates to being employable anywhere you need to move in the country. Good people with flexible shift options to meet family needs. Advancement opportunities exist. Retirement and investment benefits are better than most companies similar sized.

Cons

Work/life balance is challenging as an hourly associate. Shifts in certain positions have varied hours each week to meet payroll demands. Families with kids may find more challenges with balance due to illnesses, school holidays, and child-care needs. Health care benefits are overall pretty weak in general.

Pros

A pretty secure job if you don't mind working and are not a slacker. Opportunities to advance to upper levels of management with no college degree. You can make a decent salary when you advance in the company.

Cons

Big business. Sometimes doesn't show enough appreciation for hard working employees. You work most major holidays and don't get any holiday pay. Too much blame from one shift to another, nobody seems to be on the same page.

Pros

When I first started the people were nice to me throughout the training. The hours were good and couldn't complain about compensation because it was my first job. Working in the backroom could have been a dream because it is the type of work I like. Because its labor intensive and doesn't require much customer interaction unless you are out stocking the shelves. When I first began the job I saw myself staying there and eventually rising up to a better position in the company.

Cons

Management treats their employees like dirt, most but not all. Anytime there would be interaction between the employees and a manager in the backroom it would always be negative or demeaning. During my short lived career at Walmart I saw so many people come and go which was because of the supervisors/managers. I liked the job very much and if it weren't for a supervisor constantly breathing down my neck I would've stayed. I would be talked down to every day and sometimes in front of other employees which was embarrassing.
