Pros

Customer service. Helping people get their needs and wants accomplished. Keeping the equipment working and maintained. Helping out in other departments as needed, especially in electronics.

Cons

Constant shifts in shifts. Never knowing at least 3 weeks in advance as to when I am scheduled. The worst however is never knowing where a particular item that a customer is looking for is today. They constantly get moved. A customer will ask me "do you have ...." I will say yes but turns out it was not in the same place it was yesterday. It makes me look foolish. It even happened to me last week in the water isle. couldn't find the flavoured water that I was looking for because it had been moved. Way too much time is spent on mod changes for no good reason. We are supposed to help our customers find the items that they want but if we can't even find them ourselves.....

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.
