Pros

The work life balance at Wal-Mart and general understanding of management is very good. You will rarely encounter better situations in terms of being given time off to take care of personal matters, vacations, etc. Management is also very respectful towards employees and vice versa, there is a strong culture of mutual respect in the organization and anything else is generally not tolerated. A culture of quality work is also generally present and to get the right job done. Overally the company is a fair place to work for where if you are aggressive you have lots of opportunity to learn and grow in many positions in the company HQ.

Cons

Not aggressive Geographically undesireable location for young people Not well educated

Pros

Better than unemployment, better than fast food. But not by much. It pays fair to well, and in theory you could advance. But I haven't seen it happen yet. It pays the bills, if you don't live a life of luxury. Management can be a hassle. They are a different class of creature.

Cons

A dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job is a dead end job.

Pros

You can have fun if you have the right management staff and be productive. You can meet alot of interesting people

Cons

They want the job to come first not your family like it use to be. They need to sell better quality products. Not things that start to fall apart after just a couple of washes.
