I liked the company culture it was very nice and the managemnet was great and felexiable to any situtiaon that came up.
What I wish was different
I wish that the pay was a bit higher and that I was doing more meaningful work that was related to my degree.
Advice
I would say don't get caught up into the Walmart company culture. A lot of people go into Walmart and get comfortable and don't return back to school or take breaks then never go back. I would stay focus on the bigger picture and continue your education. Walmart is good for your first job in college but makes bigger strides to get an internship in your field.

Personal Shopper
May 2018 • Tarentum, PA
What I liked
I had never worked in retail before, and this job gave me the chance to see Walmart stores in a new way. I got to learn how they functioned and be a part of it. I liked working with a team everyday to achieve our goals, and I felt that my job meant something.
What I wish was different
All new employees had to undergo 12 hours of computer training. Most of it wasn't relevant to my job, and it was hard to pay attention. I wish there had been a different way of communicating the mandatory "base" information.
Advice
It is what you make it.
