Walmart Employer Reviews

Very good being working in the company.People is very important.

Decent place to work, managers weren't the greatest but co-workers were amazing. Learned to be social and have confidence when speaking to new faces.

A typical day at Wal-Mart as store standards is basically:
>Collecting carts in a fast paced enviroment
>Complete safety sweeps
>Complete dry, wet, and glass clean-ups in a safe manner
>Assist with carry-outs and carry-ins

a typical day at walmart would be to swipe in, walk to my cash, sign in to my cash and process customers orders, bag their merchandise, handle money, and continue on to the next transaction. I learned how to process returns and exchanges aswell as a variety of transactions. Management is unfair, shows preferential treatment to full-time employees and – more... disrespected me throughout most of my employment there. examples such as : calling me fat, telling me to shut up, not accepting my doctors notes, disciplining me when i had nothing to do with the situation. The co-workers were for the most part quite enjoyable, fun loving people. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the constant criticism from management. the most enjoyable part of the job was working with some of my co-workers who made the shifts go by fast and kept the conversation interesting. – less

management at abbotsford 3019 store is terrible.. they have no clue what they doing.. and they running the store down..

As a cashier, my body had to adjust to standing in one place and grabbing, dragging, and bagging items. I learned to pull through during the massive rushes when they came. The managers were very helpful to both customers and associates. A number of my co-workers seemed to get along very well, though I didn't really know many of them personally. The – more... couple that I did know though were great with helping me adjust to the new job. The hardest part of the job was making mistakes since they're not always solvable without a manager's code. The most fun part would have been the relatively constant flow of work. – less

I have learned how to use the cash register and all the codes at Walmart. The people i worked with weren't as helpful as i needed when i started. Most enjoyable part of my time at Walmart would be meeting the regular people that come in and see you every other day.

Overall working at Wal-Mart was good very respectful and enjoyable to work at.

Exciting atmosphere, always challenging because of the different people you meet every day. Taught excellent work ethics and instilled exceptional customer service skills. Great learning experience!

There were a few employees that had very serious hardships, & when we went to management to see if they could be helped out, it fell on deaf ears - in other words, nothing was done. But they were big on giving back to the community. Lots of miserable co-workers. Don't miss quite a few of them. They talk about you behind your back. There was a female – more... Assistant Manager there that everyone was scared to death of, but thankfully, she's at another location now. There was a lot of heavy lifting involved, which I don't miss. Not enough hours, & paid minimum wage so as to keep prices low. However, enjoyed for the most part working there, & was lucky to have a local job in a seasonal area. – less

Bad management that drags everything down. Ridiculous demands for work hours. working full times hours while being registered as part time. Told to leave school hours early to go to work.

Stocking and zoning

Workplace ethics and culture

Good management

Co-workers are friendly

-so many interactions with other associates and customers
-safely workplace
-there isn't any hard job at Walmart
-the most enjoyable part of the job is everything in Walmart

- You get two faced by the managers. They're nice to your face but talk crazy behind your back.
- Learned absolutely nothing. If I did learn anything, it was from the Computer Based Modules every employee has to do.
- Managers don't do anything and let their personal feelings about an employee dictate what they make the employee do.
- Co workers never – more... want to work with you, they're so scared you're going to steal their count. Because you have to count how many boxes of product you put away each night. Which, from working as a Support Manager, you find out that the expected counts are through the roof which no one can reach. Because you don't reach them, you get bad ratings and if you are LUCKY, you will get a 10 cent raise after a year of work.
- Never meeting unrealistic expectations.
- the 10% discount for being an employee. – less

Everyday in Wal-mart is an interesting day, its a place where most management have respect for the associate, were you have the opportunity to learn and grow. you also learn how to value teamwork.

Wal-Mart could do better in all areas of employment and benefits.

Walmart is very busy all the time , alot of demand of customers and assocaites

i've really enjoyed working there but had to leave because of moving to an other city.

It was a fine job at the time, mostly just handled sales transactions and worked in the clothing section. However, I felt like the management did not know me personally because there were so many people working there.

I found that no matter the effort put in, only the favorites had a chance to advance
