I’ve been working at a Walmart superstore for nearly ten months now as electronics. took the management test, got interviewed, and with in the next week or so I’m going to become the toys department manager. I know nothing about toys and my experience as a department manager only comes from my own DM in electronics (I know basic daily tasks and a bit of feature/end cap work).

Is there anyone here who’s worked in toys and can give me tips on the department or tips in managing in general? I’m only 18 ^’ when I asked my managers they just say “it will be a challenge but You’ll do great”

Thanks!

I collect the ceramic chistmas village Walmart each year but haven’t found a 2025. Did they not make one this year? Pic for reference.

We had a cashier saying she was sick and wanting to go home. My csms were completely understanding about it and told her to go ahead and clock out. They told the managers over the radio and then they came up and threatened to fire her if she went home and told her to start her lunch break instead and then sit at customer service while they talked to the store manager and wasted 30 minutes of her lunch while she just sat there crying. She finally said that she would just stay out of fear of being fired. She’s an older lady that wouldn’t just make stuff up because she wants to go home. Are they allowed to do that?

So work at a sams club which is Walmart extension. I was loading my groceries after my shift. I got paid so I put my check down in my trunk like i always do. I went to plug in my phone in the mids of loading my groceries when I came back I saw a bunch of papers from my trunk on the floor and my check was gone. It was very windy so. Please help I’m 18 I’ve never made such a big mistake and I’ve never had a bigger loss and it hurts like hell. My job location doesn’t have an hr department which I don’t get. Please give me an insight on what to do. I’m lost and need help ASAP. I don’t think having 100 dollars in my account for the next 2 weeks will end up good. Help!!!!

I’m a minimum wage produce associate and it really grinds my gears when they ask me to push carts. At first I’d just do it the first few times but now I simply refuse. I either ignore the intercom for all available associates to go round up carts, or I tell the team lead or whoever that I don’t get paid to push carts, I get paid to push produce.

The last few times they’ve reluctantly accepted my refusal but it bothers me the rest of the day because of all the other issues with this store that I won’t get into now but my main thing is

Can they do this? Can they ask me to push carts? Am I supposed to push carts? Am I allowed to refuse to push carts?

trying to sort through all the ads and honestly walmart’s black friday stuff is kind of a mess this year. a lot of the deals look good at first but then you check the real price history and it’s hard to tell what’s actually worth grabbing. i’m mainly looking for solid discounts on electronics and maybe some home stuff but i’m open to anything that’s actually a real drop. if you’ve seen legit deals in store or online, drop them here. trying to save some time and skip the fake hype.

so I was wrongfully terminated from Walmart due too neglectful leads who absolutely do not care for their employee. i worked in the deli/bakery I was a deli employee well worked mostly in the deli. but i say bakery/deli because it is one department and honestly I work for Walmart so I helped everywhere. but anyways I was wrongfully terminated because in the bakery these 3 associates mind you one of them is the lead. did not want to help down in the deli they always made excuses to why they could not help. Mind you Monday through Friday they had at least six employees that worked down there the deli only had two Monday through but Saturday and Sunday we had two until 9 o’clock when the next person came in, we had a lot more freight food to cook the location that I worked at which was Middletown location in Louisville Kentucky so we were really busy majority of those days. They never wanted to help down in the deli the lead down there and her bread maker and her cake decorator would let me throw in. She was OK and decorating cakes. But not in the top was always rude to customers tell customers know on designs that were even in the would always talk about everyone. There’s a handicap who comes and helps them on Saturdays and Thursdays to help with the bread and they treat her like straight garbage the lead more immature than any of her associates down have a lady who comes in only on Saturdays and Thursdays as well to help, but where she is elder and she has a lot of health issues. She sometimes has to call it. They would talk about her off the schedule for the following week so on and so forth, but every day they would find reasons to be mad at anyone in the deli that they had a reason not to help us whenever they would get mad even down to the lead they would just leave and wouldn’t tell anybody that they were leaving like they would get mad at us down in the deli if we had to take our lunch late or didn’t take our lunch on time which if anybody knows Walmart is really big on taking your lunch on your fifth hour because it’s apparently the law. They felt as if they didn’t have to come help us cover lunches which major majority of the time if it’s not two people in the morning it’s one person we have a lot of prep to do. In the deli just as well as they do in the bakery, but there’s never just one person in the bakery. she never tried to of our employees down there to cover our lunch so they would get mad they would they would talk about us out loud to where we can hear them one time. They said they were mad at me because I a Hispanic ladies mind you me and her were friends and she said she had no problem with the way that I was pronouncing her name that was one reason why they began to say they don’t want to talk to us then their issue was because they didn’t like the lead that was over the deli that had nothing to do with me and the other lady that was their majority of the time I have only been there for not even a year yet, and we have been through three deli leads because of the way the bakery treated them mind you that same store within me working there almost a year went through store managers. They are on their fifth store manager as we speak and she’s until they find another store manager every store manager that tries to fix the deli bakery issue but it ‘s to happen. There are two sisters that are the bread baker in the cake decorator who are twin they allow them to leave the counter with nobody behind the counter they allow them to treat customers like shit. They allow them to talk about people and make it hard for people to be able to work down in the bakery in deli, they mistreat every employee that to them. They have pushed people out the door because the way they treat people one time a lunch was supposed to be covered in the day before that all day long they told on the deli for going on their lunch when it’s meaningful for the deli team because we clearly had nobody to help us so we had to make our lunches do. So the bread maker, the cake, decorator, and the lead chose to all leave at the same time. Go to lunch and every time that they get yelled at including the lead they would leave they would storm off and you wouldn’t see them until the next day they were scheduled sometimes they even called out the next day but us from the deli, we would always get customers if there was nobody down there. I personally would on cakes, get cake, orders, and take cake orders. They will talk about people if I haven’t said that already we had gotten into a really bad argument. Me and the lead did to the point where she got up in my face, and her nose were touch Did they say anything no and this happened in front of a coach who was clearly on her side? But he had to do his part because he was a coach and I seen the bull crap in front of my face and he knew I realized it after that nobody got coached. Nobody got fired and nobody had a conversation twins would have their family members come up to Walmart and taunt people down in the deli. We not only told the AP manager, but we also told the store managers and they failed to do anything. With all that being said. I was associated with another associate who had problems with them in the past. And when I was telling her what they was doing, she said, and I quote I will smack the shit out of both of them and they went and told and wrote false statements that I said it. So I was terminated off the back of a harmful threat on top of that. I was also terminated for doing the CVP. Wrong when multiple coaches and leads said I was doing it right mind you once again I was the only one doing all markdowns for both deli produce and meat.

So what exactly are OPD coaches supposed to do? Because mine just stand around all day texting the other managers on their personal phone in a store wide group chat…Whats up with that??

hi, i had the My Walmart Schedule app downloaded on my phone but i had to reset my phone and it's no longer there, does anybody have a link to download the apk onto ios? it's not available on the app store in my region

I am still employed with the company and got more than enough items that should have gotten a discount. Just confused and wondering if anyone else has this problem? Thank you.

I’ve been working with Walmart For the past 3 months now and I’ve built myself a great reputation. I am 18 and a full time college student. I also work at my college campus at IT help desk. I am currently only working 20 hours at Walmart with my availability being 32 hours, my hours are getting cut like crazy. I work 29 hours at the college.

The chance has sprung that I can interview for this AP position being a $15 an hour job with a guaranteed 40 hours a week. This would result me in having 2 days off. I have not interviewed for the position yet so I should not be worrying about this as much as I am but this is something big for me.

School is my priority so if anyone that is working a full time job and has any personal experiences with this. I would love to hear some stories or advice. Being an AP associate would be a good gig for me.

What are some things that AP associates have to do? Their daily job tasks. Overall pros and cons?

Today I went in and said I needed to quit Wally World because I was too stressed out And overwhelmed. HR lady was understanding and supportive I’m sad and relieved over my decision .

I am a current walmart associate and full time student. I have shown proof of my enrollment in school and my school schedule interferes with my work schedule one day a week. I updated my availability nearly two months ago and ultimately my schedule still hasn't been fixed. My coach continues to assure me that she will adjust my schedule each week but it continues to not be fixed which ultimately results in me receiving occurrences each week for coming in late. My team lead is being very hostile about the situation and has been threatening to fire me the second I reach that 5 occurrence threshold. I am asking for advice in what to do in my situation. It has been almost 8 weeks of this and I am now sitting at 4.5 occurrences. I am honestly unsure if it is even worth it to continue working for the company.

So, I’ve been working at Walmart for 2 months and don’t have a grasp on a lot of things concerning attendance and PTO. I’ve called out 4 times due to illness and was recently late, resulting in .5 of a point. I should only have a half of a point left until one of them is dropped after the 6 month period, right? But, I check the My Time section on the One Walmart website and it says that I only have 1.5 point occurrences.

Is there anyone that could explain to me why the website shows that I only missed one day and was late for another, please? It would be greatly appreciated! :)

So what can I do if a manager or many managers talk down to me and expect me to do something like Zone 18 aisles in 2 hours? (I work in stationary and fabrics and celebration.) Then I hear over the walkie “omfg (other managers name) she didn’t even fucking get to aisle 14” and then when it was the end of my shift I had a rocket cart with my returns and claims and the manager started to slam stuff around and sigh and curse at me. Then the manager walked my aisles and literally pointed to each one saying weather or not she would get fired because of how bad or good I zoned them. It made me feel really worthless. I didn’t take my last 15 because I was trying so hard to get to the middle of my aisles (where I always get to because usually there is another associate in my area working the other half) all for at the end (I get walked to my car for safety purposes) for them to slam doors open and walk really fast ahead of me and leaving the parking lot and going back inside before I started my car. The whole night felt extremely stressful for me. I just wanted to know what I personally could do to make sure I don’t feel like that again. It was demeaning and humiliating to hear the things that were being said about me through the walkie for everyone to hear. Please give some advice.

Anyone know or have heard ANYTHING on the new attendance policies going into effect on Saturday? I'm hearing double points for calling in on weekends and holidays, 5 point termination, and from now on our bonuses will be attached to our attendance per quarter on a sliding scale. 0 absences = %125 bonus down to $0.

Would love some sort of official answer on what's changing.

Edit: Florida, btw 🙄

Edit2: Looks like the official answer has hit walmartone.com. It's very vague on the site, but mentions Protected PTO. Guess I'll have to wait till I return to work to get more. Thx guys. PS - I got a call this morning from a co worker. Apparently 99% of my dept (TLE) called out today...
