Business Outlook

Pros

Wal-mart is a good paying company. It has it's problems just as there is in every company. It pays it's managers well. It has good growth opportunities.

Cons

It can take a long time to get a job or a promotion at Wal-Mart. There are a lot of people going for the same job so you really have to learn how to interview and look good to stand out in a crowd.

Pros

I enjoyed working for them because they have good company values. Managers were rewarded during the year based on the store performance.

Cons

Must become an walmart employee for more than five years to be considered for a manager position. There is growth potential but it will take a while before your performance is recognized.

Pros

People, Learning Opportunity, Scale and Environment. People - There are a lot of intelligent, driven and talented individuals who work at Walmart.com. Learning Opportunity - if you want to learn about email marketing to site engineering, supply chain to graphic design, the people at Walmart.com are very open in sharing their experiences with you. Some of the best people in these fields work here. Scale - working for Walmart has its advantages because of its reach and depth in the market. Working for WMT allows you to touch almost every aspect of a full product cycle. Environment - depending on the grouop, it still has a small, Dotcom feel.

Cons

HORRIBLE benefits, too many meetings and red tape (from Bentonville). We cannot be a part of the 401k program until your 13th month on the job. The selection of Health benefits is really bad. The pay is not comparable to similar organizations. They are making improvements: Bauer shuttle service, fresh organic fruit on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On average, a person will attend 4 meetings a day of which, maybe 1 will be productive. People need to do work versus meeting just to talk. Red tape - its hard to get things done when there is a lack fo resources, too many procedures/processes or Bentonville colleagues asking for too much or demanding things right away without knowing how procedures work in Brisbane.
