Pros

You can do anything for this globally recognized and accomplished company. Great growth potential and limitless possibilities. Confidence that the company will be around for a long time. The company adapts, changes and grows with the times, technology, trends, and economy.

Cons

Lots of disrespect both from customers and associates. Lots of dramatic personnel issues. Constant degradation and demand for more, more, more. Poor overall morale at store level. Lack of consistency with policy adherence and accountability. Fear of losing your job.

Pros

competitive starting pay if you bring some experience to the table, management is very competent for the most part

Cons

Market teams are out of the loop completely when it comes to the daily workings of a store. Bennifits could be better, but their not THAT bad. Policies contradict each other often. Due to recent law suits, it is almost impossible to get a promotion as a white male.

Pros

It is great if you have a good mgr. My immediate mgr is great since leaving the company I still have contact with all of them. I would go back and work for them. However WalMarts biggest downfall is their senior mgmt district and higher. They do not know what it is like to run a Pharmacy. They are also afraid of being sued so they are timid at times when they need to be stern. If they would let the Pharmacy Mgr run their pharmacy like it is their own they would do a lot better in profits. It would be a better place to work if they let this happen

Cons

Senior mgmt. they do not understand what it is like to run a dept or work in one. They definitely have no clue about Pharmacy.
