Business Outlook
Pros
Wal-Mart keeps me humble, very humble. Everyone should work somewhere like Wal-Mart for a while, to learn for themselves the importance of pensions, decent pay, regular hours, labor unions, and self respect. When you've worked for Wal-Mart, you will appreciate a decent job if you find one.
Cons
You name it. It truly feels like legalized slavery most of the time. It is a symbol for the pitfalls of capitalism. Scientific Management Calculated Shorthandedness Management Intimidation High Turnover Low Employee Morale Lack of Professionalism in Management
