      Pros

      Ease if obtaining job. Could get time of for important issues easily (most of the time)

      Cons

      A bit like working in a black hole. No real hope of career advancement unless you are inclined to <ahem> pucker up... sorry but not sure if there is a better way of putting that.

      Pros

      Very easy work and easy to move into hourly management. Very friendly customers for the most part. Bonuses and discounts are very nice to have if you buy a lot of non-essential items such as movies and junk food. You get to know a lot of different people while working with walmart. Once you have been there for a year you do get paid holidays and vacation but every company should provide this. Employee stock purchase is pretty nice as walmart is a nice stock to own.

      Cons

      Very low compensation and extremely hard to move into a salaried position. Watching activities that take place which you feel are not in the best interest for the company. Inflexible scheduling and excruciatingly hard to get time off when you want it. Wacky scheduling also causes some headaches if you have open availability (working until 10 p.m. then coming in at 7 a.m. the next day.) Trying to get answers from salaried members of management about practices that are being done by walmart can be frustrating. Not being able to buy black friday merchandise because you are working the day of.

      Pros

      Good benefits. Meet new people. I didn't NOT enjoy the time at Wal Mart. Made a lot of new aquaintances that I'll be keeping in touch with for a long time to come. I guess that's part of what working is about, meeting new people.

      Cons

      Deadend job. I really should have thought twice about taking the joba at Wa Mart. I probably could have done better with a job that had more chance for advancement. I'll be looking for a job in the future that will allow me to advance and do more with my skills.
