Wal-mart, Inc. - Bentonville, Ar.

Walmart is a joke!!!!

 

I drove for Wal-Mart from '97ish to 2003. First I drove for the Distribution Center in Marcy, NY then when they opened the DC in Raymond, NH I was based there.

It took me about a year or so to finally get on with them after applying.

They were by far the best company I ever worked for, bar none. Very focused on Safety, almost to a fault sometimes. Very very professional, at least in the Transportation side. I know that the store employees and management are quite different, but as far as Wal-Mart Transportation, Top Notch.

Downside was the time away from home, as with all trucking jobs. The biggest fault was definitely the Health Care benefits. Pathetic coverage, and it cost a fortune. Not sure if that has been fixed yet, but that was about the only major issue I had with them. I honestly think that WM top management believed that there would be a universal healthcare program, so they waited and tried to save money.

I loved working there. Good people, a little over enthusiastic about the Wal Mart culture I think, but it was kinda funny to me. The last full year I was there I made a hair over $87,000, and that was in 2002. I would strongly encourage anyone to seek them out, you will likely never leave.

 

How so? In what way are they a joke? Or is that all you have to offer?

 

how are they to work for

 

wORKING FOR WALMART IS LIKE SLAVERY....FYI

 

Whoa now, your confusing Wal-Mart Transportation with Wal-Mart dedicated with a CDL mill carrier ?

How do you drive for Wal-Mart ? It helps a good deal to know a current driver. Any tickets EVER ? See ya later. Any Non-Preventables in the last few years ? See ya. Yes I said NON preventables. Only the best of the best get paid 90 grand a year for driving a truck. You don't neccasarly have to know a current driver but it helps. A squeaky clean driving record is a must though.

 

Anyone looking to drive for walmart, just go to walmart.com/careers. They will have a list of DC s that are currrently hiring drivers for their private fleets
