Process
The HR contacted me and immediately scheduled an interview. The interview was for a Developer I role. The HR was very kind, but the interviewer, who contacted me the next day, was a bit rude. Overall, it was a positive experience.

Walmart Technology - Reston Rocks!
Senior Technical Manager • Current Employee
Reston, Virginia, United States
January 13, 2016
Pros: I've spent roughly eight years with Walmart Technology. Most of that has been at headquarters in Bentonville, AR, but less than a year ago I relocated to the Reston office.
I love Walmart's culture to begin with, but Reston really takes it to the next level. It's incredible how much autonomy we have to get things done within such a massive company. We operate more like a start-up than what you would imagine, given Walmart's position as the world's largest retailer and Fortune One company.
The people are great, the culture is great, the location is great. I love coming into work each day!
Cons: There can be some friction when interfacing with teams in other locations (Bentonville, AR; Sunnyvale, CA; etc.). We run into the occasional red tape or bureaucracy and have to work our way through it.
But that's really the exception, not the rule, and we're paving the way for greater collaboration between all facets of Walmart Technology than we have previously enjoyed.
