Pros

The pay is excellent for the industry although you will work for it. There are great people to work with, a sense of family. Fast pace keeps you busy and moving.

Cons

Poor communication and competence of upper management, as well as lack of development and advancement opportunities plague the company. Nothing is ever right and the environment is frustrating. Everything is about making an extra buck, often at the expense of the associates. High turnover (all).

Pros

Really good place to start off, which teaches many skills needed for future jobs and future development. Taught me not to take everything people say so seriously. There are some really hard workers and I love the people I work with. the SWAS system Walmart uses is beneficial to the way the store is run.

Cons

The management team is horrible and seems to think we as "part time, useless, disposable" associates are stupid or something because the stuff they try to get away is ridiculous.
