Walmart reviews

Very unstable worse than Amazon - competes on price alone with bad customer service with no control of 3rd party merchants on platform. Led by empty airheads with titles of VP, Sr Director.. but no guts to compete with Amazon. If you go on automatic pilot here, your career could be doomed due to no fault of yours due to some nasty higher up manager. Worse than Amazon, as stress is high especially from Oct-Dec, and worse than Microsoft as favoritism abounds. Lots of H1bs terrorized as their Green cards take forever. Be aware situation has changed as growth flat and IT-EC merger will lead to thousands of layoffs per year as Jet CEO cuts off empty airheads at top and hires outside expensive silicon valley. As Amazon grows its grocery, they will make a last ditch attempt.

-Awful/cheap health benefits with mandatory deductions for life insurance -Extremely old/outdated work facilities and lack of meeting rooms (meeting in a loud cafeteria just doesn't cut it) -In general, Wal-Mart Canada doesn't seem to attract the "best and brightest" - lots of lazy lifers, poor managers and you're generally not working with "top" or smart talent in any department (HR, finance, property management/real estate) -The company likes to sell its "work life balance" lifestyle to potential employees (flex hours/work from home), but most senior employees (senior analysts, and above) very rarely - if ever - get to use these benefits. Just a big lie. -General sense of disorganization and lack of accountability - sometimes it is truly surprising how this company got to be as big/financially successful as it is when you see the processes, reporting quality and overall structure of the company being as poor as it is Overall, unless you're desperate to get "Wal-Mart" on your resume, there are certainly much better places to work out there.
