How much money should a Walmart associate make after 2 years with the company?
User 1: I was a Cashier and they started me at $6.50.
User 2: I started out at $7.75 an hour in Illinois. I believe you get a little 40-60cent raise for ever year you're with the company..unless you get promoted to a higher job/dept then you'll get a bit more.
User 3: no, not in Georgia
dkablack: I started out at $8.00 an hour due to my previous experience as a cashier and I had a job already, if you leave your current job to work at Walmart they are willing to pay you a bit more. Many will start out around $7.25 which is the federal minimum wage set in July 2008 (?)
I make $10 per hour working third shift.
R.J.: My brother works with a door greeter that has been with the company (In Florida) for about 40 years. He makes over $50 an hour, no that wasn't a typo. They've now changed the policy so that the job 'tops out' at around $24 an hour. The man has refused every job promotion offered to him, who could blame him? Making that kind of money to say hello to everyone? I'll take it!
Why is Walmart ruining the economy?
Because walmart is the leading supermarket chain. However it buys mainly from offshore. So basically, all the money Americans spend at walmart goes to china.
Say, were playing monopoly. Everytime I buy property I throw that money away. We will call the floor China. So by the time I buy all the property on the board all the money is in China. Now every time you land on a space, or say shop a space, I keep that money. We will call you America.
Also, most people who work at walmart shop at walmart because most walmart employees don't have much money and walmart is cheap. So that money doesn't go back into the economy except for bills.
There you have it.
So here is the cycle at a glimpse
Money>You>Walmart>China

To give an idea of why this is a big deal, walmart/sams club employs more people than the us government, that includes the military. Also when walmart donates money, they get a tax break. That tax money is basically taken from U.S. and given to China.
Do walmart sell energizer car battery?
Walmart does tend to have better prices, especially since that will match prices, and take coupons. So technically, yeah they could sell cheap rechargeable batteries, but to make it even cheaper, look for coupons and add-matches.
What are the goals of Walmart?
What are the hours of a department manager at Walmart?
hourly mgrs work 40-50 a week, assistant managers work 45+ co/store mgrs work 55+
that doesn't count lunches, salaried mgrs usually just get a 9 hour(not counting lunch) day added on so they work 6 days during peak time
UPDATE: Wal-Mart has recently changed the structure of how managers work. They now are required to work 3 days from 7:30 to 8:00. That shift applies to both day and overnight managers, so that there is a half hour overlap for exchange of information. That's 12 1/2 hours a day, but they is a SCHEDULED lunch hour in there.
After that 3 days, they are supposed to get 3 days off. This would be a good plan, as it rotates their days off and they could plan a life around the rotation. However, store managers have decided that the "intent" of the new plan was that asst managers should work 60 hour work weeks and so feel free to schedule their assistants shifts like 3 on, 2 off, 1 on and 3 on. Saying that they are sure that asst managers are still expected to work 5 days a week, even though the official rotation would have them working only 4 days a week, or 48 hours.
The problem with Wal-Mart is that Bentonville headquarters has some great ideas, but once the "ideas" become working models in the field, the Store Managers are allowed to alter these great ideas and use them to abuse their employess.
Did I mention that this new shift and rotation was implemented without a single pay increase and that they have recently made it nearly impossible for employees at new stores to ever receive a management bonus.

How do you apply for a job at the Walmart distribution center in Opelika Alabama?

No because Wal-Mart does not possess a banking license in any part of the United States and any banks you see in their stores such the SunTrust Bank in the Southeastern U.S. are owned and operated directly by the bank themselves who are subleasing the store space from Wal-Mart.
IMPROVED ANSWER
The answer is no, Wal-Mart do not own the banks in their stores. There are actually "partnering" or co-branding. It is a strategy that benefits both Wal-Mart and the banks. People choose to come to Wal-Mart because it is convenient for them to get their money from the banks. The banks get more business from Wal-Mart customers who forgot to bring their money.
