Pros

Walmart used to have a wonderful culture! Our values meant something and the people truly made working for Walmart a great experience. The scale of the organization allows for meaningful work with high impact outcomes. But with great values sometimes people get complacent. We did not have a performance culture but it was a great place to be.

Cons

Former Accenture leaders now with Walmart hiring only their Accenture friends. Everyone gives a good talk but nobody knows how to execute anything. Pure chaos disguised as "Transformation" ... HR is a joke. Have been transforming for 2 years and there absolutely nothing to show - other than very poorly managed layoffs.

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.
