      Senior Agent Customer Care

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Able to earn a living and use past experience to help tier1 agents, store clerks, and customers of Walmart Stores and Walmart online.

      Cons

      Walmart stores and Walmart online are two separate entities. Meaning, that it is harder to assist customers that call upset with treatment in the store as we cannot see or answer or solve their problem since we do not have access to see or solve store problems (delivery issues, returns, pricing errors, refunds etc). Stores will tell customers to call WM online to solve issues we have no knowledge or access to fix. By the time they reach Tier2 they are truly upset.

      Much better than expected

      Pros

      I cannot speak for past behavior of the company, nor for the non-web part. But on the technology side, I found myself being pleasantly surprised by what I found in the company vs. the assumptions Walmart out there in the general public. * modern technology choices * open environment * opensource heavily used and contributions encouraged * large scale to play with (data, visitors, product count, problem space, etc) * willingness to invest in innovative solutions and experimentation (depends on team I suppose) * company is showing more and more progressive and socially-responsible behaviors on the political front (green energy focus is one highlight) * "doing the right thing" is actually deeply ingrained into Walmart's DNA

      Cons

      * Big company issues - many departments with legacy solutions and long standing problems * If you are willing to "bring your own leadership", you'll have a good time. Otherwise, depends on which group you end up in.
