What I liked
I liked the pay. That’s what attracted me to the summer job.
What I wish was different
The management was not caring.
Advice
The job is not easy! You definitely need a strong back and be willing to work long (12 hour) days.

Cashier
March 2017 • Whitewater, WI
What I liked
I got more hours in the summer because they were short handed. Then they sent me to do a remodel at another store so I was doing about 50 hours per week plus they gave us travel pay.
What I wish was different
I had to be stuck here the whole summer. I didn't know when I'd have time off because the schedules are not consistent and there wasn't enough people to take my shift if I wanted off.
Advice
Put your foot down. Don't let them make you do something you don't want to do. Watch schedule times because I got scheduled until 12 am and then back at 6 am the next day. It's just the online scheduler and they don't always catch the mistakes.

Associate
June - August 2018 • Colorado Springs, CO
What I liked
I liked that I had the chance of working with the same team everyday. My supervisor was also very involved in the daily tasks that our team was assigned everyday.
What I wish was different
I wish our tasks would have been achievable for us. Some days we would get some many items coming into the store it was impossible for the amount of people we had that day to complete our tasks for the night shift to be successful.
Advice
This position was a good to start off and get references to maybe advance in different part-time jobs in the future.

The pay scale is definitely generous in comparison to most other places for work. Scheduling for school flexibility is the hardest thing at Walmart
