Will there be any layoffs at walmart/ Sams Club soon? I heard contract is going to end for most vendors soon. TC: 165K
According to some reports they’ve already implemented hiring freezes for both Sam’s club and Walmart global tech, so take that as you will. next earnings call is in mid august, so we won’t know how things are going until then. Update: as of 4pm EST they announced that they’re cutting second quarter guidance. My take is that they’re announcing this early to soften the blow for whatever they actually announce for earnings in a few weeks
Heard the same about contractors. And that open recs have been closed
Yep, Sam’s eliminating some if not most contractors. Confirmed last week. I’m sure Walmart is following suit if Sam’s is doing so
How about associates? Are they planning to layoff associates too?
Not completely sure. It looks like they may be pulling others around to fill gaps. Some teams are getting stripped, some are getting left alone, and everything in between. Engineering, product, and design seem to be affected. Don’t have the entire story though. Based on how Sam’s is, they will probably try to keep perm associates as much as possible. Contractors are getting the shaft though
IDC is hiring crazy. Walmart US is firing so i guess they are going for cheap labour during recession
We have been asked to cut open Reqs so far in Walmart IDC.If things get worse layoffs will follow
What is IDC? I’ve seen that abbreviation a lot but never figured out what it meant
India dev center
My team is still hiring. Don’t see any freeze or layoffs
We need more talent at Walmart. Have not heard anything from the leadership to slow down on hiring. We got a heads up to be prepared for increase in volume & demand in the coming days. The only thing that’s frozen is travel.
How do you expect increase in the volume & demand when the inflation is at its highest & people are spending less?

Rahul Gandhi is poison but the people who believe in him are a lot worse
Isn’t the recession will make people shop at Walmarts more 😓? They might need workers compare to Target or JC Penny
Isn't recession going to make ppl to spend less in general?
But Walmart is cheap
