Current Employee - Feb 12, 2024

Working for Walmart introduces, many rivers of lies, abuse, and overwork You meet, narcissistic drivers, wanting you to fail.... they lie about everything, including pay, and so forth. You are told that after a year you'll start making good money because initially you clear $1300 a week No pictures nor recordings I I suspect Walmart is afraid you will record OSHA violations, another safety problems, Walmart claimed the best safety record in the industry - a total lie Walmart isn't in the top 10❗️ Walmart safety record is good, but nowhere near the top 10 Walmart Recruiters are Great but Walmart's "onborders" lie about orientation, pay, bonuses... your promised $1000 travel pay, ...but they lie, so don't travel for onboarding unless Walmart pays you in advance, because they won't pay for it once you're there No pictures Probably because of all the OSHA violations .... there's no real difference between Walmart on boarding and the worst truck carriers. .... Some quit over some reason didn't continue ... I offered one of the onborders at the hotel, a ride over to the distribution center .... he told me that he had problems with one of the instructors. The instructor made various references to FMSCA rules that were misleading. The fellow on border didn't make it; Walmart canceled his room at the hotel and was sending him home; he was stranded because hospital bills of his wife, his bank rupted them, and he just didn't have the money to get home. Walmart says they are safe and yet they have many dangerous policies. Slip seating, is dangerous. The public must be protected from Walmart and Walmart has a $90 million award against them - dangerous driving An example is the Ezricare lawsuits against Walmart. Walmart allegedly kept selling severely toxic eye damaging eyedrops even after the the CDC told patients to stop using the drops because of the risk of a deadly infection. There was the equate brand Tylenol: Walmart continued selling the drug without putting a warning on the label that Walmart Tylenol potentially had serious consequences from taking the drug. Bad baby food - parents choice, for example... allegedly this seriously damaged and injured babies. Walmart gets sued nearly 20 times daily and even have Law Firms that specialize in protecting the public from Walmart (ex., Miller & Zois) ... MZ attempts protect the public, heightening awareness that Walmart products can be very dangerous and the treatment of the employees can result in very dangerous situations. Ex.: $90 million award against Walmart for Tracy Morgan. Driver had violated HOS ... this is just one of the nearly 5000 lawsuits filed against Walmart each year to protect the consumers from the dangers of Walmart. 20 a day. So, if Walmart doesn't run over you, certainly you stand a good chance of being poisoned to death allegedly and according to hospital records, and the people involved in suing Walmart, According to CBS "Insurers of Walmart challenge Walmart...". To protect the public from lies of Walmart .... when one of Walmart's drivers killed Tracy Morgan's friend and left Tracey Morgan with painful permanent brain damage .... Walmart has good benefits ... but I've read and heard from Drivers the Walmart orientation is more like Ayatollah Khomeini's reign in Iran. The established drivers at Walmart feel they have the power of Ayatollah Khomeini and the knowledge of a truck genius .... Paychecks will not be as expected. Your orientation will be nowhere near what you were expecting. .... If you were sent home ...Walmart won't even let you stay one more day at the hotel❗️ You will be thrown out and they won't give you money (as promised) to get you home. This is the largest company in the World, capable of spreading all kinds of propaganda. We all see. We all see what happens when you cross Walmart as an employee ....It's understandable because the wealthiest and largest company in the world moves rapidly to propagandize opinions. .

Pros

Great benefits if you can collect them.

Cons

Really ignorant trainers; no reimbursement for expenses, nor trip to Walmart, cheap hotel, narcissistic employees

You will not make what they advertise, unless you can maximize every minute of your 70. Which you can’t. Slip seating in OTR is just asinine. Lots of corporate BS, pro-company folks, big brother, etc.

Pros

Top notch equipment and maintenance. Decent benefits. Lots of PTO.

Cons

Pay, OTR, slip seating, company men.

I am 6 months into Walmart. It’s not a good job. It’s a corporate mess!! You can’t just be a driver you have to play the politics game too otherwise you’ll get screwed. The pay is not 110k a year as advertised all my checks are about 1200-1300 a week. Way short of 110k

Pros

Benefits

Cons

It’s Walmart. The job sucks in almost every other aspect.
