I like it when Walmart uses other retailers and grocery store programs and call it their own. It makes Walmart a very confused company with no real direction. Every year the have their meeting and store managers come back and unload the "new" program... — read more

With all the layoffs, expenses for third quarter still reported as being UP?!? Where is all the money going?

Every store I have ever gone into nobody is smiling. They look mad or sad and some look frustrated. What happened to that place?

You thought they just treated folks in the stores like dirt, didn’t you? It looks to me like home office is starting to get a taste of the treatment store associates have gotten for years. But hey. The stock price is up.

Some say it’s just the way men are I disagree not all men are the same and not all men harass women. But after a decade of service at Walmart I can’t tell you the number of stories I have heard about what other women like me have endured. Am I the... — read more

Whoever described the current situation as "looting" wasn't exaggerating. Walmart is infested with NEPOTISM and FAVORITISM at all levels. A lot of us on these forums, what we have in common is being overworked while being held to impossible standards... — read more 

Seems that a couple of people I know of have been PIP'd instead of getting laid off. Seems a little fishy in that if you don't agree to the plan apparently they fire you. Not sure if they are doing this to save money on severance packages, but seems... — read more

Like most people here(it seems), I'm looking to leave Walmart. Is it confirmed that staying through the fiscal year, January 31st, will secure the yearly bonus? Honestly, I'm at the point where the thought of staying until mid-March for the actual... — read more

Walmart is the place for you if you like a “ top heavy “ company at store level this is the place for you!

I left Walmart after almost 10 years of service. Leadership lives with their heads in the sand, oblivious or unwilling to see what is happening around them. I survived multiple rounds of layoffs over the past 3 years in my area and eventually just... — read more

I believe they do more than scan shelves. Live cams, picture capabilities, voice. New programs!!! Brace yourself!!!

Store planning got hit hard last Friday. Most of these are field positions, so there is not as much exposure in Bentonville. These were probably due to the move away from new store openings and remodels. We are going all in on e-commerce. You have to... — read more

Great who has time for that? Another brilliant idea from the Home Office! Some one got promoted with this one.
