Pros

The work is easy and fun, can handle the customers.

Cons

Come into a mess frequently because they aren't staffed. We would rather have more people working and give up the bonus check. They spread you too thin, and the quality of work is going down. Hard to set mods in one department and keep up a zone and make sure on hands are correct, when you are doing ICS's job logged in under their log in so it doesn't show you doing their work, while at the same time you are the only one watching a service department. Then are pulled to grocery to zone daily, not getting your own departments zoned. It wears you down, and when you finally mess up, they're all over you.

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.
