Wal-Mart – “Day in the life

Jun 14, 2009

5.0

Wal-Mart Assistant Manager:   (Current Employee)

Pros

You get all of your hours, and the company has a great engrained culture. Decent pay, but big time opportunities for growth. Great job security

Cons

You see people get upper level jobs from out side companies with less experience than your management team. The assistant managers dont get paid enough.

Advice to Senior Management

Find the people that work for the company already! YOu need to promote more from within and when you need outside influence bring on consultants not full time people.

Do you have a college degree? The people at corporate probably have one or the "outside" as you mentioned and so you get to climb the ladder faster. Get a college degree if you want some advancement.
