Nothing good with this company

Dislikes

...omplaining against manager to HR and higher management, no action will be taken. Instead they will give you worst rating, 0% hike 0%bonus. And also in some cases they will try to put you on PIP then fire you. So don’t join this company. Also if your manager name to be Pradeep Gupta or your project going to be OMS, never join. He will make your life hell.

Dislikes

Lots of politics, compensation mediocre. They focus less on career growth and more on making noise. So it doesn't matter what one did, only perception. Walmart is not a tech company but driven by their business goals, so innovation is years behind peers and worst part about them is their internal tools which we are forced to use under the name of security. The cherry on top is the worst in class documentation of said tools. If one can handle demeaning, micromanagement, it does have great work life balance., but that would again depend on manager. Dont join if you have other options.
