Pros

The convenience of being able to work, attend school and be a mother. There are not alot of places to work in a small town. They let me work only part-time which is all I can do being a full time student and mother of a preschool age child. The bonuses and profit sharing are nice. They could do a little more for their employees around the holidays, many employees do not recieve anything. I feel that walmart could let their employees know a little more that we are the ones that make the difference. If a person wants to come to work then they will do a much better job than someone who doesn't.

Cons

The managemnet team is not very professional. The wages and benefits are not good. I feel that at my particular walmart it depends on who you are if you can advance in the company. If you do not follow the right ones you will never advance. To me this something that needs to be looked into. I have personally dealt with managemtn not having respect for their employees also and feel this is something that makes a huge impact on the type of business you ahve in your community.

Pros

It is close to home and a 10% discount on your purchases. I like the other employees that i work with as they all try to work together to get the job done. They have always worked my personal schedule around my work days as long as you give them ample notice.

Cons

Never enough employees schedule at the right times to handle customer needs. Store Management will not say hello to employees when walking by them in an aisle at least at my location. Communication seems to be and issue from store management and the constantly changing polices and procedures on different issues throughout the store confuse the employees.

Pros

The stock options are the best part of Wal -Mart. There are a lot of people that have made a loy of money working at Wal-Mart.

Cons

Since Sam Walton died they do not care about the employees> The benefits are not what they used to be. Turn over is up and long term rmployees are down.
