I am a TC and my friends act like I died. Our PC has friends she never knew she had before pumping her for info on the new position. She even got a call from another store. Just shoot me now.

Did a little research and talked to some people I know that work for other retail companies. Everybody makes better money than us at Walmart, not to mention better conditions, bonuses, benefits. From what I’ve seen is that WM spends to pay three... — read more

Has a class action been filed for theft of our accrued sick hours? If not I'm going to look into it. Misleading employees into believing they're earning sick hours (for personal use) when in fact they are not is so unbelievably wrong. People were... — read more 

Has anyone heard that if you work over your schedule you get a half of point and if you take a little longer on lunch you get a half of point too

There have been many posts here that say the PC and TC positions are being combined. We were not told that in our meeting. We were told there was "no information yet on the TC." (Ominous music) If the positions are being combined, it doesn't seem... — read more

I have it under good authority that the President of Walmart, although well in his 50's, has made the decision to layoff Associates and Management that are over 39. Possibly, he thinks by laying off people over 39, will improve his efforts to catch... — read more 

Any word on Health and Wellness changes? Optical specifically???

Interesting info in this article. These bonuses are not bad for the ones that don’t call in sick every time we don’t feel well. For the ones that try to avoid work this way, don't think even money can be much of a motivation.
