A once-in-a-lifetime experience
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Bentonville, Arkansas, United States
March 13, 2014
Pros: Great new modern looking and feeling offices at the David Glass Center.
Super cafe at David Glass as well: Starbucks, Subway, Chick-fil-A, salad bar, and more.
Lots of opportunity to share ideas and opinions and get hands-on with projects.
Walton Fitness rocks; you would be hard-pressed to find a better facility anywhere.
Your career direction is in your hands in many ways; just look at the new CEO.
Cons: Work-life balance is a challenge at times. This is not a bad problem in a slow economic climate.
There's too much gap between stated culture and actual culture. I'm not sure Sam Walton would recognize the organization, unfortunately.
We seem to have fallen behind competitors on many fronts, especially Amazon.
Extremely weak technical leadership in executive positions.
Lack of transparency in decision-making.
