Pros

Not too many. For me convenience. The people are fairly nice at the store I work at. Manager is easy to deal with and the personnel manager was one of the most professional employee I met.

Cons

The pay is low, like their prices.Picked up the job just for some extra cash. With many years experience in receiving, I thought the compensation would be reasonable. They informed me the best they could give me at that point was $7.90 an hour. With the first raise based on review not for a year. Most benefits do not start until after one year, which compared to my full time job is excessive.

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.
