Pros

Coworkers and direct managers are amazing. Has nice benefits and amenities.

Cons

The recruiters and interviewers aren't transparent about the duties of the role in the position. They don't pay their employees equally even though they don't allow negotiated salary. They aren't very trusting of their full-time associates. The work that a category specialist does is very tedious, repetitive, and not challenging at all. They advertise and promise a lot of great things, and continuously fail to follow through on their word. They don't do right by people.

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
