Pros

You get a pretty decent employee discount in card form. And it's okay to share that discount with close family relatives i.e. spouse, mother, father, children.

Cons

I was lied to many of times by this company. When I was first hied I was told that I would be allowed a raise. However, they changed the "rules" a week prior to my evaluation and I got NO raise. When I was hired I had a tongue piercing. I was told that I was allowed to have a clear ring, but again they changed that a few months later and I was written up. I was scolded in front of customers by managers. Worst of all I was told I had FMLA for my pregnancy, was denied 3 months later and written up for my tardies & such.

Pros

The pay was decent for how laid back the job is. The managers work with your schedule if they like you. The job was also rewarding when you got to help people.

Cons

Schedules are based off of sales from exactly one year ago, so if sales were down one year ago Walmart would schedule fewer hours for that week. There were never enough people to help when the store was busy.

Pros

I have worked here for over 5 years now. Our Previous Photolab Manager was amazing but they executed her position. I love the profit sharing they give us and we can work out our availability hours. The people i worked with became my family. We treat each other equally and well respected.

Cons

Customers are always complaining, people think that we have to know every item in the store. Kodak Kiosks Machine always breaking, need to update the machines. Not enough staff in the Photo-lab, many times we don't get our lunch or break after working 8-9 shift, They have this safety & health policies and such but they don't even obey them. Schedules are always messed up. Not a single manager knows how to run a lab and They fired the only Photo-lab Manager that knows how to run a lab. New managers treat us like we don't even exist. They expect us to do everything. This new management team at this location is very bad.
