Are there any APMs AP ASMs out there that also think 4% raise is a joke? The coaches start out higher than us. The leads aren’t far behind us in pay. Yet the amount of responsibility, expectations and pressure we get is astronomical.

Given the success of the previous thread on closures @OP+11Lwvwht - I wander if we should ask the same question for 2021 - so, what do you think - which Walmart stores will close in 2021?

Walmart sr leadership is producing a midterm strategy to reduce stores by half in Washington, California, and Seattle. The overall goal is to pull back expansion for a minimum of 3 years due to the rioting. Surprise. Surprise.

Interesting that this policy change comes with GWP-Workday. You need people there not calling in to make it work. you have to eliminate social distancing to work in a team. Coronasvirus coming back in round two. Layoffs and not enough people.

Don't let this story fool you into thinking Walmart is doing something overly good. There will be a LOT of hourly employees losing their positions and forced into lower paying roles. Some will have the possibility of severance. Salary roles are being... — read more 

So bakery and deli get a raise to 15.... what about the rest of us? Been there 8 years still not even at 12. I guess everyone else doesn’t matter.

Stores are trying to force workers to have open availability. They are reposting your jobs and making you reapply with open availability. Definitely don't apply, make them fire you so they have to pay your unemployment. Furthermore, if you stay they... — read more

Just got word it rolls out company wide in 2 weeks. A lot of people are about to be screwed. There is a long thread on this here @OP+XtNnD7f or here thelayoff.com/t/XtNnD7f

Hold onto your pants! Here come the changes.

Conference call today for all store managers with Dacona smith. Any info on this? Gwp?

As of yesterday we have a sign at the time clocks and health desk about attendance returning on October 1. Is anyone else seeing it in their stores? I think this is great news.

Is it true these points being waived are going to come back when the attendance system gets turned back on next year from calling out during the pandemic?

If this test works out well they may expand it nationally. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_a5Y2F8UwQ

Does anyone know if they are extending the waiving of points for month of September ?

Just read a very smart analysis on reasons why Walmart's grocery shares are rising slower than those of our rivals. I would say that losing a piece of the pie in groceries has also something to do with our management who couldn't care less about our... — read more

So here's the question I have there are many companies that are doing layoffs but they are primarily related to covid-19. Walmart is laying off people in a pandemic while they're sales are absolutely through the roof because people for a while... — read more

What is Walmart doing with MIP's for those displaced? Are they allowing you to keep what is not vested?

Was told today that when the Christmas season starts hours are going to a rotating schedule. Two days off in a row with every seventh week you get Sat and Sun off. Doesn't apply to part timers or seasonal hires.

For those of us who watched in horror as their entire team was cut, Walmart has still found a way to screw us. I lost 7 team members, only to be asked to change my role (unofficially, of course) from a manager to an individual contributor and do the... — read more
