Pros

Its a job that pays fair for the work that is done. While the economy is diving and their isn't much work, they're busy and have work.

Cons

Mid managment is held to any accountability in regards to their attitude, their poor social skills with their staff. They are either not trained on how to manage people or they are held accountable to follow that training.

Pros

you make friends you get a discount of 10% Besides that i do not see whatsoever any reason i would want to tell people, that this place is a decent job. It pays my bills, but barely

Cons

management treat you like a child the communication between associated is horrible! the pay isn't worth taking all the crap from customers! Or even management! `Asking for a day off is impossible to do, unless you like being made feeling guilty! `the new schedule is never, ever up on time, just a few days before the old one is over with. `So when you do ask for a day off, they say the schedule has been made, and they don't know if they can change it for your conveniences...:@ The 10% Discount is a JOKE, It only works on certain items, and that does not include food. the hours are very random! They have given people less the 12 hours a week to work. Even tho they say they never do that, and a minimum of hours has to be 12 per week! I have seen a girl get 4 hours for a week. They then blame it on the "computer" who makes the schedule! And be prepared, that no matter what, management will bend over backwards for a customer, and rarely backup you decisions,

Pros

Wal-Mart is a company that has had to change with the evolving demands of its employees, as well as its customer base and shareholders. In the seven years that I have worked for the company, Wal-Mart has attempted to balance the demands of all three. The number one reason to work for this company is the company's belief in "respect for the individual". Over the years the emphasis on this belief has increased greatly. Wal-Mart is the kind of company that really makes an attempt to please their associates.

Cons

There are times when ill tempered customers have an emotional impact. The key is to remember the positive customer experiences.
