Pros

It's exciting to work in the e-commerce industry, especially with a company that has a lot of potential and interesting things going on.

Cons

It depends on the team, but what I personally saw were multiple rounds of layoffs, and a very cut throat environment. There is no job stability. No work life balance. You are not welcome if you have are older and have a family or kids - the majority of employees and those that are most valued are in their early-mid 20's, young, and willing to work 24/7. New management has killed the company. Their goal is to get rid of everyone at Walmart and replace them with teams from Jet; anyone at Walmart will always be inferior. They don't care about people, whether it is in retention or development. You are easily replaced if you are not a super smart young Harvard educated analytics type person. Let's just say that I had high hopes for working at Walmart eCommerce and although it was once a great place to work it has turned into a night mare and I am left traumatized by the number of extremely experienced, admirable people that I have seen suddenly walked out by security and laid off for no reason.

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
