Stores are filthy because to many associates let them get that way. I’ve been with Walmart 11 years and I’ve seen many of you walk past a spill. Ignore clothes that have fallen to the floor. Takes two seconds to put it back on the rack. I’m looking at you American Canyon store! What sh-t show that place is! If a cooler is filthy with mold or something go to the manager and ask to clean it up! I understand for 90% of you Walmart is a temp job on your way to something better. Fine! But you act like it while you are there and then come here and other places for validation that you’re too good for Walmart. Please! Pick up a mop or an unemployment check and save us all.

I’ve encountered a female associate hiding in Mens bathroom offering “services” and smoking weed.

Walmart restructure is finally catching up as the covid pandemic sales have settled.

They lost leadership and merchandisers with GWP. Bad decisions are being made at store level, no ownership, bad results.

@6dlt+1hUNEEmT Walmart is terrible company and doesn’t value their long term associates. I left last year when they started doing the team scheduling. I feel like that was put in place to get rid of long term ft associates. I mean that’s why there is an availability sheet you fill out, but that means nothing at Wally World . After 10 years my shifts I worked were not an option anymore while the favorites got the 6-3 and 7-4. But worked out for me I now make more money and work from home. M-F, weekends off and paid holidays. If an opportunity arises and you can GET OUT OF WALMART.

This is all total BS. Jim Cramer knows the price of Walmart stock is up over time. Just go look at the 2, 3, 4 or 5 year stock history. Walmart remains a solid investment with an unparalleled track record of dividends and stock price.

As the democratic woke agenda continues to rip the economy apart, we’re probably going to see a continuation of interest rate increases (like the 75 basis point raise last week), consumer price increases and probably some job losses in otherwise solid job sectors. In other words, the economy $ucks. And don’t expect it to get better right away.

Omg you are absolutely correct. I have overheard market and regional managers discuss getting rid of long term associates. Those with 15-20+ years with the company. I heard a market manager joke about getting rid of long term associates in the “192” club. These are long term associates who have legacy sick time which maxed at 192 hours. The company no longer has the program. This was earned by working and wasn’t just given to associates.
Many long term associates gave their heart and soul to Walmart and worked hard. Many still do. But the market managers see long term associates as a liability. The company is being run in the ground by all the inexperienced people trying to manage it. No one at corporate wants to listen. Stores are horrible. Messy, shelves empty. Dirty filthy bathrooms.
Managers have no respect for associates and treat them like garbage. Favoritism is running rampant.
People call in and it depends on who you are and if your absence will be approved. Others get fired for attendance while others don’t.
And when you call Ethics, Ethics calls and tells the store manager you called and reported it and you are treated poorly and get a sh---y evaluation. I call that retaliation.
Shameful.

Not surprised at all about this. I worked in a district where 4 long term managers were cut. Some of those folks weren't just good, but great imho. One just looked around said "sc--w this" and quit.
Then they replaced the District Manager.

Lot of folks now running things thought some of the "dinosaurs" had to go to make way for their new "woke" views. There is almost no one left with over 20 yrs experience in Store Management. Our once great company is being run into the ground.
One year has passed and the stores look awful. If anyone had walked into one of our stores looking like this it would have resulted in some serious action.
The only thing the Mgmt had in common that they cut? Over 50 and had long tenure. Stores are now being run by very inexperienced folks with Store Manager turnover being around 60%.

Need more woke so it's harder to hold minorities accountable. #MinorityPrivlidge. The only ppl you can hold accountable now is the old white male. LOL... I love how stupid Walmart is - like others businesses creating the very environment that is destroying them.

"We need more diversity!" (Says someone I know who is in management) but they absolutely don't want to work in the stores where there is an abundance of what they claim they want. Why? Because this person knows they can't get these ppl to do anything. They have all the power.

If they try to fire me I'm going to suddenly become transgendered. "Hey ____ we need to talk to you.. come in the office" (guess who is changing into a dress real fast with female pronouns?)

Boo fricken hoo. Like any of this makes a difference. If you don’t like Walmart, don’t shop there. If you’re working for Walmart and you don’t like it, go somewhere else. Is there something more complicated here? What purpose does this thread serve?

Good employees are stepping down from team lead and people lead positions. Some are leaving the company due to sh---y management. And the market doesn’t give a sh-t. Sad how this company went downhill.

Cry me a river. I’ve seen 6 associates jerking around the electronics area before whining and gossip ping while shelves care. Quit crying and start working!

As Arthur Fleck said. “You get what you f$?kin deserve!”

These suits have no idea how to properly run anything. And market hasn’t the spine to tell them so.

So many folks from SM to TL are stepping down. And it’s ALWAYS the good ones. Wonder why!

Omg this is 100% fact and truth!! About time someone speaks up. Stores are filthy, shelves empty, managers don’t give a sh-t and refuse to hold people accountable for attendance and dress code. But yet they slam more work on associates and pay them sh-t wages.
