See many questions on this - at a large co like Walmart, your boss can't just hand you a big raise. Levels, salary bands, comparisons with peers and HR rules box in what they can do, so find out your range. The owner of a small company has none of those limits and can pay someone 20% more, or three times as much, if they think it's worth it. Not here.

@OP I watch these forums fairly closely. The OP is full of BS, this question isn’t common, it doesn’t come up hardly at all.
Like all major employers, Walmart has a salary plan. To ensure consistency and fairness, raises, bonuses, and RSUs all fall in line with the plan. Otherwise, they open themselves up to potential discrimination and litigation.
Even at the stores and DCs, if your performance is better, your increase and bonus is better.
Of course, if you’re not taking advantage of the stock program and 401k, that’s money leaving your pocket.
Benefit signup is right on top of us, do yourself a favor, use the benefit signup to start your 401k and stock purchase. You will make money in both.
@OP three times as much? That’s a 300% pay raise. Just for working at a small company? Where do I sign up for that?
