  Yeah I’m currently doing data work at a retail company. It’s not bad at all. They’ve thrown money at seemingly every product that can be purchased with a support contract: Databricks, snowflake, Kafka, presto, rstudio, tableau, tibco, informatica, and so on lol. It’s not “prestigious” but my resume has certainly accreted some fairly lucrative buzzwords.

  1400 of 73k posted. Which boggles my mind. Would they actually hire all of those or are a significant fraction ~duplicated postings where there is one headcount but they are willing to accommodate a range of experience/levels? Evidently Walmart employs 1.6 million in the US and 2.1 million worldwide: https://corporate.walmart.com/askwalmart/how-many-people-work-at-walmart https://corporate.walmart.com/askwalmart/how-many-people-wor... Even more mind-blowing, there are some ~165 million workers in the US, so nearly one percent of all US workers are employed by Walmart.
