Pros

You can move up into management programs at Wal-Mart if you try. Many people complain about not being able to move up but they do not specify that they want to in the career database. Managers in training earn approximately $18 an hour. They require just a GED or high school education so that's great for those who cannot obtain a college degree.

Cons

Have to work nights, weekends, holidays. Pay is extremely low for workers, especially compared to the revenue Wal-Mart brings in. The workers cannot afford to buy a house, car, food etc.. Its' sad.

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.
