walmart a good company

Where would someone apply for a position driving for them? I've heard good things about them in general.

 

i guess the problem i have with wal-mart is the way they are to the stores employees. when it comes to insurance. i know that they are a good company to drive for. but i think that rather you are a driver or a store or warehouse employee you should have equal benifits. now remember this is only my opinon and you know what the say about opinon they are like ########## everyone has one and this is mine.

 

Now hkbravo, they are doing the grocery side and they are live unloads and that takes work. The walmart drivers normally do drop and hooks...LOL
