Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Louisville, KY –
Cons: co manager mike herndon
Go work at Walmart Bashford Manor in Louisville if you want to be the only one working and held accountable. Then have management bully you and say you are not working hard enough.

Manque d'égalité et non respect de l'ancienneté...
Préposé au stockage de nuit depuis 2010 (Former Employee), Rimouski, QC –
Pros: participation au profit(bonus), fond de pension
Cons: salaire (trop faible pour un salaire unique dans une famille)
Walmart est un très bon employeur au niveau des avantages sociaux.
Hausser les salaires par rapport aux augmentations du salaire minimum.
Je donne 4 étoiles pour les avantages sociaux mais seulement 3 pour le salaire.
Mettre de l'uniformité dans la façon d'effectuer les tâches dans les Saluts.
Un exemple: on décide que tous les produits des rayons 27-30 – more...  doivent être étiquetés, que tous doivent le faire.
On s'aperçoit que ce sont souvent les gérant(tes) de rayon qui ne le font pas. – less

It's not a fun place to work.
Fititng Room Attendant (Current Employee), Maple Grove, MN –
Pros: n/a
Cons: we work every day except christmas
The management is poor. The pay is poor. The work is boring. The morale isn't very good. They keep cutting hours, but never have enough cashiers up front so they have to call associates from other departments. I have found it isn't a very pleasant place to work. raises don't come very often, if at all. Some of the employees gossip about other employees. – more...  The customers are rude, the can't take no for an answer. – less

Great Hours
Cashier Associate (Former Employee), Tyler, TX –
Pros: hours
Cons: pay
Walmart worked great around my busy college hours, and especially during finals week. Walmart provided me with the skill of handeling cash as a cashier, and how to work in a busy retail environment.

High in demand workplace
Assistant Manager (Current Employee), Palmyra, ME –
Pros: accident free day incentives
Cons: morale of some associates
I can't explain a typical day at Walmart, but there is a routine for Assistant Managers to follow. I have learned how to manage people and be tactful. How to balance a good schedule with efficient associates to gain performance in a particular area. Some times the demand of things that need to be done in a short amount of time can feel realistic, and – more...  this is where it feels impossible, but with delegation and time management it all gets done. I would rather do 80% of my tasks with 100% accuracy, then to do 100% of my tasks with an 80% accuracy. The people make the job more than enjoyable. It all about taking the time to know your people and get them engaged. With a higherassociate morale, turnover is lowered, production is high, customers are more satisfied, and the workplace is more enjoyable. – less

Great for part time employment
Department Supervisor - Electronics Department (Current Employee), Louisville, KY –
Pros: flexibility in scheduling.
Cons: pay and compensation, demanding management
The most rewarding part of my experience at Walmart has been the satisfaction from helping customers. When I started with the company, four years ago, I was very quiet and had trouble approaching a complete stranger to ask if they had questions or if they needed help finding something. I was very fortunate to be a part of a team full of very out going – more...  personalities and this in turn helped to develop my customer service abilities. However, I do not attribute my development to company initiatives, only to my coworkers. Walmart is a very task driven company, and the demands that are placed on the hard working associates are quite awful. The management must follow the direction given by Home Office, and this is not conducive to creative thinking on the store level. The company continues to ride on the reputation it established when Sam Walton was at the helm, but the goals of the company have changed and do not reflect Mr. Walton's vision.

Overall, it is a good experience builder, and has provided me with knowledge that will help me better serve the customer. The scheduling for part time associates is very flexible and is great for college students. I do not consider it a good company in which to advance. – less

Productive and good working environment
Overnight Stock (Former Employee), Wilmington, OH –
Pros: good salary.
Cons: no insurance.
A typical night at work, would consist of going to work by 10pm and getting off at 7am. My position was to stock apparel, so I would have to put out anywhere from 3 to 5 pallets of clothes a night. Management was great, co-workers were great. The heardest part of the job,was that I wasn't provided any type of insurance, and I didn't have much of a social – more...  life, working all night and sleeping all day. The most enjoyable part of the job, was being able to feel like I accomplished something and helping out make a business successful because of what I would do. – less

Constant work, Cheerful place to be, lots of Priorities, Teamwork place.
Produce Sales Associate (Current Employee), Mesa, AZ –
Pros: teamwork, self manageable performances
Cons: management pulling assotiates from their departments.
On a Daily basis as an Opener for Produce it is my priority to get my department clean and stocked fully by 7:00 A.M. keeping it set to my modular and Comac also making sure that I have enough product to last for the rest of the day by ordering from a second supplier if necessary. Unloading the morning truck and breaking all the freight down by the – more...  end of my shift as well. Keeping track of all the unsellable products and documenting the amount of unsellable product that will then be composed into Eco friendly bins sent to be made into mulch. I've learned that holidays are my biggest challenge to getting my department shift ready. The management team always is there to make sure I have the necessary hands or knowledge to keep my department perfect not only for myself but for my co-workers as well. When working with my co-workers we set ourselves to sections of the department to stock and rotate in order to get the department up in time for the Store manager to walk when he starts his shift. The most enjoyable part of the job is we get to have a social life while working. – less

Interesting Job, Co Workers were great
Cashier (Former Employee), Dallas, TX –
I enjoyed working at walmart, on some days. Management was not exactly the best and needed some work but other than that, it was fun and entertaining. I loved my co-workers, we became more like a family as time passed by. The hardest part was working with the overnight managers and the most enjoyable part was meeting the new people.
