Pros
Fascinating company to work for - especially in an economic downturn. The company is well integrated with the Home Office in Bentonville, Arkansas. The company-sponsored shuttle is really fantastic and services many parts of the Bay Area.
Cons
There are minimal soft benefits, but the company is trying to add more. Health insurance is fine, but far from outstanding. The company gets a bad rap in the press regarding benefits -- they are available, but require a fairly significant monthly contribution if you want adequate coverage. Additionally, given size of organization, each person's range of responsibilities tends to be narrow. This is not unique to Walmart.com, but typical of any large company.
