What's your guess on how many employees the company will have before the end of the year? How about the overall headcount? And headcount at Bentonville?

- 2 million employees
See below for the info from the 2019 10K from files with the SEC.
Source link is below.
This info is from the last paragraph on page 16.

- As of the end of fiscal 2019 , Walmart Inc. and our subsidiaries employed more than 2.2 million employees ("associates") worldwide, with 1.5 million associates in the U.S. and 0.7 million associates internationally.
Similar to other retailers, the Company has a large number of part-time, hourly or non-exempt associates.
We believe our relationships with our associates are good.
A large number of associates turn over each year, although Walmart U.S. turnover has improved in both fiscal 2019 and 2018 as a result of our focus on increasing wages and providing improved tools, technology and training to associates.

The correct answer is 'close to two million' if you calculate temps, contractors, etc.
Headcount at Bentonville is a harder question, not sure if we break things by location (publicly).
Walmart employs 2.2 million associates around the world – 1.5 million in the U.S. alone.

They employed fewer people at the end of last year than they did at the beginning. And they'll employ a lot fewer at the end of this year than they do now.
@OP You've asked this question on multiple boards here at the thelayoff.com. Why? You can google the answers or go to individual company websites. The annual reports may tell you too.
