How were you treated?  | | This goes out to all the former employees of Wal-Mart, Kudos to you for no longer working there! As an employee how were you treated? I was a cashier when I worked there, I was trying to go to school, I asked for a schedule change something that would work with my school schedule! I was going to school 40 hrs a week and trying to work 40 hours a week all on about 10 hours of sleep, I got wrote up due to to many days missed becuase of a misunderstanding between the two managers. They treated me very poorly, when I became pregnant it didn't improve in fact it just got worse finally I just stopped showing up for work. I had never left a job that way before and probably never will agian but in my mind I justified it because why should I show them any respect when I as an employee was not receiving it! I would never recommend to anyone that Wal-Mart is a good place to work, in fact I don't hardly ever shop there anymore even.

| | | | | | 1. thowell (2771) | 3 years ago | I am soooo sorry that you had to go through this, I do not like wal mart at all, my husband worked there for 5 1/2 years. he had 1 1/2 years left till he was fully invested in the company, he was one of the highest paid employee there, under the management of course. He did his work very well, when he worked at one store, he was treated 1/2 way decent, then we moved, and he transfered........well, he was still getting 40 hrs a week, he had to take a pay cut, like 1.00 or more an hr, he was treated like crap, he was treated as though he knew nothing, just because this store did not go by the Walmart book, thr rules.....they cut corners every chance they could. the meetings were not held right. Now listen to this..........he went on break...his lunck, he forgot to clock out, but 7 min later, he thought of it, went in and clocked off........then, went back 7 min early to give them the time back that he had missed.........and they fired him...reason was........."Theft of Walmart time" And if that was not enough, he did get his 401 k....minus 2,000.00 they took that from him, then he filed for unemployment.....he did get it, although walmart tried to fight it..........and then........THEY TRIED TO SUE HIM TO GET THE UNEMPLOYMENT BACK!!!!
Now, when I hear walmart..........I warn everyone.....STAY AWAY!!

cowgirlcat (139) | 3 years ago | Amen to that! Run far Run fast, Thats sad to hear! I am sure tho he is a much happier person no longer working for that rat hole company! We had people stealing time all the time and they never got busted for it! So its sad to hear someone with that much time invested should be treated so poorly!

thowell (2771) | 3 years ago | I think he is happier, he doens't have to put up with being treated that way, and now he is in a place where they really like his work, and depend on him.

| | 2. tanniebabe78 (747) | 3 years ago | I worked there twice now. One was a store grand opening, which I will NEVER do again!
I caught some kind of flu virus that spring and was having probs everywhere if you know what I mean, and asked them to go to the bathroom. It took them 3 hours after I turned my light on to get someone there to relieve me to go to the restroom. Anyone looking at me could see how sick I was. And to make it worse, they put me on the grocery end! What a bunch of maroons! lol.
Second time I worked there, it was good and I really miss it, but my stocks suck and once I hit the 7 year mark, I'm selling them! lol

cowgirlcat (139) | 3 years ago | I would have to say Walmart is one of the worst employers out there. I know very few people who have worked for them that has had anything good to say about them.

| | | 3. jenn7600 (17) | 3 years ago | I worked for Walmart for 7 years. It was the only place around that would work with me (in the beginning) with my schedule. After numerous store managers and assistant managers I finally had enough and quit. Each manager had a different set of rules and way to do things. You could never keep up with the ever-changing rules. I only gave a weeks notice and they put me down for no re-hire, not that I would ever go back. That was the absolute worst job I have ever had. They chase the good employees out and keep the idiots and they do it for a reason. They can't control the smart employees but the idiots will do whatever they want. I wouldn't recommend WalMart to anyone. I too can barely stand to shop there.

cowgirlcat (139) | 3 years ago | I so agree with you, the good employees get the boot, and they keep the ones that don't have a clue! I am with you I would never recommend working at WalMart to my worst enemy! I had the same issues with the managers one said one thing another said something else. I quit with no notice(the only job I have ever done that on, I decided if they can't respect me then why should I respect them), I actual don't know if they would rehire me or not but you know I am not going to bother finding out if they would or not!

| | | 4. doxiemommys (62) | 3 years ago | I used to work in the Pharmacy and let me tell you I was sooo happy to get the heck out of there. Wal-mart in general treats their employees badly especially behind the scenes. Breaks and lunches were always optional and training lol they might as well not have done it. All I remember is sitting in front of the computer for hours doing those stupid trainings. It has been years since I worked for walmart now and well I am so happy that I am not there anymore. The money was poor and the management was worse.

| | 5. bwrattybaby (5233) | 3 years ago | I don't blame you I would have just not showed up either. Seems like a bad place to work if you can't give them all your time. You was in school and they treated you badly I wouldn't have taken it either. I would have called the district manager and told them how I was being treated. No sense in not treating employes with respect. Good for you!
