Pros

* Perks, Benefits, Brand, Ambience is all good. * Good for junior employees - great place to start - but learning will be low. * Great branding/marketing team. * Good Annual event, parties etc.

Cons

* Extremely slow development environment - zero or minimal technical learning is to be expected. * Poor Work-Life Balance in Bangalore. Expect 2-3 hours meetings between 7 and 10 PM, daily. Hiring Drives every other Saturday. * People in USA are not very technical, but they are closer to customer. So they will micro-manage India team's technical views. * Political environment - almost toxic in some teams (Global Data Platform, Customer Tech, Merchant Tech, and Supply Chain). International teams are better than USCTO.

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.
