Pros

Wal-Mart has great benefits. 401K to invest in along with other stock options. Paid vacations. Paid vacation is determined by how many hours you work. Very good about letting you have time off except on holidays. Some of the associates you work with are very friendly. Some are very committed to fast and friendly customer service. If its a product in the store management or an associate will be more than happy to look it up. They celebrate associates birthday and accident free work days by having parties or cook-out. Wal-mart has fashion shows with associates to model in them and certian times they do weddings if you're getting married.3302

Cons

No room to move up in other positions. They allow people who have been there a shorter amount of time to fill those positions.They hire too many people and don't have the hours to give to the associates who have been there longer. Wal-mart will require you to work in other departments but your pay is not the same as the other employees. Certian members of management believe in working every holiday. So watch out! There is a six month waiting period before you are able to move up anywhere else. Wal-mart does not pay overtime for extra hours worked/.

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.
