Department managers

June 2015 • Montgomery, AL

What I liked

I actually love working for Walmart. I am Department Manager of Automotive. My work hours are long. Usually 10 hours then home for online classes at Troy Unversity. At Walmart, I am part of the Children’s Miracle Network team since social work is my degree path, and I also help law enforcement and schools by giving Walmart donations to the boys and girls in need. With that said, I had an extremely busy summer working while giving back and still working at Walmart as a Department Manager. Student, Wendy Smith

What I wish was different

Nothing!

Advice

Giving back to others enrich my life as well as those around me. It blows my soul wide open when I see the spark in others from giving.

Check Out Cashier

May - August 2019 • Ahoskie, NC

What I liked

The other cashiers I worked with were always helpful and willing to answer any questions I had.

What I wish was different

Advice

Be willing to ask questions. If you don't and you face a problem you don't know how to handle, it's harder to figure it out in the moment.

Walmart Cashier

July - August 2019 • Rexburg, ID

What I liked

I liked having a steady and dependable job. I also worked with two of my brothers.

What I wish was different

The teamwork. You don't get to know the other cashiers very well because you clock in and the stand behind your own register for four hours while every other cashier does the same, so there wasn't a lot of time get to know each other and form any sort of work "family". In the end I was offered a position at another company not even a month after starting at Walmart. I now work at A.C.Moore where I know my fellow coworkers much better. It offers a more friendly environment and I look forward to go to work 'cause I know I have friends there.

Advice

Wear good shoes, take your breaks outside (the breakroom is stifling) and ask for Sundays off. Having that little bit of a weekend does wonders.

Sales Associate

August 2018 • Kennesaw, GA

What I liked

I'm not very fond of this job but i like that it allows me to pay rent and keep food on the table.

What I wish was different

Management, work load, employee treatment and expectations, pay, ability to unionize, etc.

Advice

Walmart is a company that does not really care about its employees and they will look to overwork you and underpay you as much as they can. I recommend this job to anyone who needs some sort of income that is better than fast food but if you can work at some other place that respects its employees and pays them a livable wage, I would recommend you go for that instead.
