Pros

the pay isn't bad and for the most part they will work with a school schedule. the profit sharing bounses are nice. the work doesn't require a lot of thought to get it done.

Cons

the harder you work the more work they give you. to get into management you have to do to whole "teacher's pet" thing with them. if you have the friends in upper management you can get the exp. in the hourly management to go higher.

Pros

Working with a variety of people is a bonus. The potential for career growth is there. Being a global company, there are no limitations on where you could work. Usually at your own discression.

Cons

Pay, if lower on the management pole. Its easy to get your foot in the door through hard work and dedication. However, those traits are not valued at Wal-Mart. Being such a large company political preference create a large obstacle in getting promoted. Its all about who you know. So if a career with this company is in your future goals, start networking ASAP. That is the key to success for the vast majority.
