Hi I got a potential offer in the Walmart + ( Walmart plus ) Engineering team for a staff level manager role. I was wondering if any one working currently in Walmart Sunnyvale would give their thoughts on the work culture, hours of work? Off shore Engineering team interactions? Is long work hours , weekend work? I was told by recruiter that there is a flex PTO policy does it mean even for public holidays like Presidents’ Day, July 4th , Memorial Day , PTO needs to be approved ? This doesn’t happen in any other software companies , so was wondering what’s the process current Walmarters in Sunnyvale follow? #walmart #walmartecommerce
Offered TC ?
Don’t join they are gonna layoff next in line. Hire and fire.
Just don't join here. Daily life is miserable here with encouragement to lack of planning and subpar engineering.
@vzngeekn0 - Thanks , how is the Program manager group that works with the Walmart plus Engineering team? Is the pressure high on Program manager group as well? Is it chaos ?
Yes, it's early morning, day, evening and night calls, constant push and constant top-down follow ups. Program is even more messed up since you are the tool of a delusional leader and have to get everything done asap while pushing teams across timezones (3 in US, 1 IDC)
I don't know about Walmart, but I worked in e-commerce and you don't have a life. No holidays, and you can not take PTO on any public holiday. Don't recommend.
Just had a meeting about this, you need to plan vacations 3 weeks ahead of time, sick out more than 3 days need doctors note. Technically if u want to take a Friday off you need to get approval before hand but managers should be ok with that
They also updated their remote work policy 2, can’t work in any place but designated for more than 2 weeks without approval
