Pros

It seems like a nice place to work, there is the opportunity for growth, advancement, and flexibility. This is a situation where if it sounds too good to be true it is.

Cons

Once you are hired associates are told a test will be given. You will have two attempts to pass it after four weeks of training. If you don't pass it you will be terminated on the spot. This should have been communicated during the hiring process not after an individual accepts a job offer for a permanent full-time position. There are several software systems created by Walmart you have to learn that fails on a regular basis. You have to take out your own trash and vacuum your work area. The restrooms are not clean on a consistent basis. Training is really teaching you because the workflows that are supposed to assist are overwhelmed assisting others. If this is what keeps you being the number retailer then continue, just remember giants can fall and fail like anything and anyone that takes advantage of good hardworking people.

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.
