It is unsafe and very irresponsible to do the pharmacist and tech cuts at the same time. Cuts do and will happen, but the way with which this was rolled out means one of 3 things: 1. We are combining with Humana or UHC as a means to survive. 2... — read more

I am so over it with Walmart. You can’t say anymore you can retire from Walmart because every 2 years they are changing each position. People wake up. They feel if they give you a $2.00 raise that is exciting, at a point it is but it will be taken... — read more

All positions to have different title. Only 1 co mgr per building. Asms different title. Cuts on ASMS who dont pass test in foundation classes.

I doubt it will be management, as somebody else predicted. Considering how unexpected the whole Pharmacy thing was, now I'm worried that literally nothing is safe. Do we have ANY ideas if something else might be hit the same way Pharmacy was? Talk... — read more
