No. That's the average pay according to the company. It's 2% as usual.
Because walmart is floating in money. Oceans of green backs. Him called walmart puffa puffa pay.
Raise pay by 10%, cut hours by 30%.
It’s all PR spin. Always has been. Always will be.
Instead of having the gumption and courage to fire and layoff folks like most companies do, they play a sick version of “hunger games”, reducing hours to as little as possible until folks quit.
No one who isn't management is getting a substantial pay raise. They issued a press release bragging about the average wage going up because associates are getting their normal 2% pay raise in February. This raises the average but it's not a big deal, it's just math and Walmart decided to brag about it. Probably so they would look like they aren't sc--wing associates over to give store managers a big raise.
Yes it’s called lousy pay.💰
