Does Walmart have the issue of not being able to find workers?
- josefresco 4y agoI didn't find any recent headlines specifically referencing Walmart, but in the following article* they mention it's a "general trend" for retailers.

They don't pay as well but no one who works for Walmart is incessantly being told they need to work harder than their peers or they'll be fired. Not like Amazon anyway. Furthermore, if you work for one Walmart and get fired you can always go work for a different Walmart at a later date as long as the reason why you were fired wasn't for something like theft. They're not too picky about such things. Anecdote: I knew a guy (neighbor) who worked at a Walmart in a different town that got fired for missing too many work days (don't know why). He had no trouble at all going to work for a new Walmart that had recently opened up nearby. From what I've heard, this is the type of thing that would get you blacklisted from Amazon (because they're just that ridiculous about punishing people who don't put in extra hours or "just do their job").
