It all depends on the area!
Pros
Some of the benefits of working at Walmart Global Tech are: - Base salary is pretty good for the area - Additional cash benefits (stock awards and bonus) are nice - The scale at which you work is great - it's not every environment that offers so many opportunities for writing apps that run at such a large scale - There's a lot of technology in use, so there a lot of niches to explore - With the size of the organization, there are a lot of internal opportunities
Cons
Some of what I'll say is dependent entirely on the area you are in and the manager and leadership team in charge. I'm about to change teams, but here's my list of cons based upon the area I'm leaving: - Leadership is all but obsessed with bringing in expensive West Coast outsiders to tend to be poor culture fits, especially for leadership positions. - Leadership plays a lot of favoritism games - there is a "Circle of Trust", and if you (or your team) is not in it, forget about promotions - Progressing beyond a certain level in your career can be very challenging - you are often given far more scrutiny than an external hire. It's not uncommon to fight to get promoted, only to be forced to accommodate an external hire for the higher-level position. - West Coast-based leadership at the director level and above is HIGHLY biased toward that geographical area.
