Pros

- great coworkers - 4 week onboarding/ training period where you get paid to do nothing - big company name for your resume

Cons

There is a reason turnover rate is so high. - recruiters LIE to you about what you will be doing - training was terrible, you come out just as clueless as before - you're expected to do more than what you get paid for - reviews depend on whether or not your manager likes you - work is incredibly mind-numbing - flex PTO depends on your manager and holiday - work life balance does not exist during holiday - no incentive to stay

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.
