r/walmart

i was just told by a hiring lead they cannot rehire in FOUR regionals ???? what the fuck walmart. like literally is this true?? i live in Colorado im just at awe. Its not like i stole from the fucking company.

Ok so standard for an air conditioner or a heater is 30 days with a receipt. Had a lady come in and she had bought it in June. Told her there a thirty day return policy and it was on her receipt. She comes back later and flashes her phone where she had done an online initiated return and it allowed her to do it! I paged my manager and let him handle it.

Question is why do they want us to follow policy but yet the stupid add app lets them do whatever they want to!! Hated seeing the smug look on her face!

The future sucks

To snarky users; why do I care? It's called being human and curious. Something you're not capable of having, selfish pricks. Touch grass.

I am going to clarify that this is specifically for scenarios where, a wal-mart job is *all that they have* going for them for a varied assortment of reasons. It's probably their only income. That's all that they're offered. That's all that they can get. That's the only thing in town. Stuff like that.

If you quit or be 'promoted to customer' with another job lined up or something on the horizon is there for you like a career, then hey, congrats and wishing nothing but the best for you. You deserve better.

However, it kind of bothers me in the other cases where it's like, it's weird how people are just praising the fact that someone just isn't getting income anymore. I mean, if we take away the aspects of Wal-Mart of itself, it is still a job at the end of the day. It is the reason you're able to get by. Because the economy is still trash with no one competent to fix it. The job market is even worse with thousands and thousands of people cut off from their jobs which makes competition very high.

It is never a wise idea to lose a job and not have anything lined up afterwards. Because sure, it might feel great for like the first week of ridding yourself from a Wal-Mart job. But then once the expenses start piling up and you don't have the means to deal with it, you're in for a world of struggle.

Here is something else I don't really get, that if you're tired of working for Wal-Mart, why aren't you utilizing the offerings the company gives? Like, they will pay for your tuition to have a better education. That is them indirectly saying "hey, we know we suck and we know you hate us sooo...why not aim for something better? eh? ehhhh?". So if you're not doing that, then it's on you for why you're not going anywhere.

So yeah, I just find it very weird that for every other 'I quit Wal-Mart' or 'I got promoted to customer' post, the comments are oddly saying "hey, I'm glad you're jobless! go you!" if the post is the case of someone just throwing away a job with nothing lined up for them.

How to quit from Walmart? My coach said "just gimme a note and sign it." Does it need to be a formal one?

Regular employees doing team lead job , team leads doing coaches job and wtf do the stores leader and coaches doo? Bark orders and stand around but won’t even acknowledge you …. I know y’all probably heard this 1k times but I had to vent.

So... To start off I want to say I hate this company

I met my fiancee at Walmart when I started working there I've been thinking about quitting anyways to stay home with our daughter. My fiancee had to call out for a few days because I had emergency surgery 2 months after an emergency c section. I am not allowed to lift anything and I can't take care of her on my own so he put in for loa and they called today telling him it was denied because the fiancee isn't a close enough family connection. The only way to be approved is to be married or immediate family. I just have to say that is absolutely ridiculous.

My torso gets cut open twice in the span of 2 months and he gets denied leave is stupid. Not to mention we have our daughter 2 months ago and he only gets six weeks to bond with her is ridiculous. I got 16 weeks for maternity leave but fathers only getting six is so awful. It's not like I planned for 2 emergency surgeries but he got a call that he was fired not even a face to face conversation. He's been with this company for 5+ years. We were in the hospital and he got a call that he had too many points. They kept saying we have a business to run. He didn't even have enough time from being back from parentity to get PPTO and PTO. But he also lost is uncle before the emergency surgery and he took bereavement but got pointed for that as well. He showed a obituary and everything and he got pointed. We have had employees in our department that call out and leave early without PPTO everyday and are still there and there have been times where someone will come in and see what they were doing for the day and just leave so what's the point if they get to stay. I hate the way he has been treated. It's ridiculous.

What is the point of staying at a company that treats their employees like cockroaches. We are people not gum stuck to the bottom of your shoes. If you showed employees compassion you wouldn't have bad metrics.

hey, ive been on loa for like almost 2 months.
my return date is the 25th of this month. how do i go about getting a schedule? i contacted my bosses. anything else i should do?

I don’t really speak to my management team much, I usually get left alone to work through my freight and more recently the mods. I’ve had to get a second job and it pays me more and is more oriented to my career path and my degree but I’d like to stay at Walmart one night a week just to maintain some security. Walmart was my first job and I’ve been there over a decade. How can I ask them to please work with me and let me stay? Please be kind. Thank you.
