    Honestly I can't remember how I was paid for training, but I'm certain the hotel wasn't part of it, besides being free. My training was pre-covid, so they flew us to Bentonville and wined and dined us for the week.
    After that, for my week of on the job training I was paid as if I was a solo driver. Mileage, stop pay, etc. My trainer got his ADP.

    Paid for being at the DC, 40hr workweek. They feed you breakfast & lunch & then pay for your dinner $20 or less. Save your receipts & then turn them in to your HR manager.They pay for the Hotel too.
    The only regret you will have is not applying here many years ago!!
    I was at Laurens back in February.

    I think wal mart is probably a pretty good job for those that can deal with slip seating and micro management .
    Also good job for someone with a family that needs predictable home time .
    Wouldn't be my cup of tea tho ..
     
    truckdriver31 and T.Rucker Thank this.
