Pros

great benefits, thr ability to save through 401 and stock purchases, The associates you work with...Management can at time be nice when they want something.

Cons

being a VCM.....div 1 and div 30 have no understanding and no direction of each other, there is no communication.... as a VCM my H/W manager will say one thing, and the store manager ALWAYS says no to this direction... Being a VCM...I have a div 1 store manager, a MM, and a regional manager, and in Div 30, I have a MM and a reginal manager and THERE IS NO COMMUNICATION

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.
