Walmart

Employees are nice.

Easy to work your way up.

Easy to request time off.

Management doesn’t listen to employees.

Short-staffed everywhere.

Low morale.

Very low retention of new employees.

Management is more focused on metrics than how the employees actually feel.

Pay attention to your workers. If they’re all calling out or quitting right after getting hired, obviously there’s a problem. Listen to the concerns and ideas of the people directly working in certain departments. If someone says, 'We’re always short-staffed on this day,' listen and adapt to that. Employees here do not get paid enough to be okay with not being heard. If you dismiss what a group of people think, they will turn around and seek a better position at a better company. Every day at work, there is always something that happens that makes me feel like quitting. I don’t quit because of my position, but if I was getting paid $11/hr, I wouldn’t have stayed for more than a few months. The whole dynamic has changed in the stores, and no one thinks it’s for the better.
