Pros

competitive starting pay if you bring some experience to the table, management is very competent for the most part

Cons

Market teams are out of the loop completely when it comes to the daily workings of a store. Bennifits could be better, but their not THAT bad. Policies contradict each other often. Due to recent law suits, it is almost impossible to get a promotion as a white male.

Pros

It is great if you have a good mgr. My immediate mgr is great since leaving the company I still have contact with all of them. I would go back and work for them. However WalMarts biggest downfall is their senior mgmt district and higher. They do not know what it is like to run a Pharmacy. They are also afraid of being sued so they are timid at times when they need to be stern. If they would let the Pharmacy Mgr run their pharmacy like it is their own they would do a lot better in profits. It would be a better place to work if they let this happen

Cons

Senior mgmt. they do not understand what it is like to run a dept or work in one. They definitely have no clue about Pharmacy.

Pros

It is mostly easy work, pretty easy to get a job there and it is a pretty stable company as of right now. If you are willing to move there is some opportunity to move up if you are in to the retail type of work.

Cons

The pay is not that very good. The different types of work are can be very limited They try to be too fair and equal with promotions, raises, and other job opportunity. What I mean by this is that they don't put very much emphasis on who would be best for the job they use other more quantifiable things so they can prove why they made there choice.
