When Walmart came to Germany I've actually kinda hoped, they would succeed with that warm-up thing. But as most (if not all) stores were just bought up from other German chains - their employees were bought with those stores and remained as unmotivated, bored and sometimes aggressive as they were before :-) When you write about "the directness of the culture" I find it telling, that Wal-Mart sees its methods as "people-centered" while the competitor's German CEO sees them as "all about budgets, not customers"
