Pros

Job security, a challenging career, and a fast and dynamic place to work for. The information system division is a great place to work for a first job. You are exposed to a large amount work in a very short period of time... This is great as far as building your experience. You can have different career path without having to leave the division . The company cultural is great. Everyone is so friendly!

Cons

The hours are long. You have to work a minimal of 45 hrs a week. The corporate training could be better. No clearly defined roles . Everyone does the same job type... just on different levels.

Pros

I enjoy the discount, They are fairly flexibe when you need time off. The Open Door policy is great. You can walk right up to the store manager and discuss your issues. In most places that I have worked, this was not necessarily the case. I feel like I can be open and honest and let them know what is bothering me. We get a bonus every 3 months based on the store performance. We also get incentives for other things also

Cons

Working with the public is always a downside to retail jobs.

Pros

Potentially stable place to work. Benefits package can be useful to you if you like to shop at Wal-Mart. Large organization means that there's a team for everything.

Cons

Old boy network rule supreme. Managers in some department feel that they own you and will work you as hard as they can if you let them. Poor support in getting equipment. Terrible corporate culture. Environmental awareness posters everywhere but an utter disregard for implementing actual power-saving measures. Their efforts to drive down prices are focused on driving down lower-level employee compensation.
