Walmart too slow!!!

Hey I got my offer from Walmart in August end 2018. It’s been almost an year now but those guys haven’t started my background check or anything yet. Also in offer letter it was mentioned that my joining date will be agreed upon by me and my manager. But seems like she doesn’t give a shit. No contact what so ever. How should I take this. Also I applied for my EAD on March 20th. Can I ask July 1st as safe side date? The issue is I have to sign a house lease on 1st June and nothing seems to be going forward 😒

If you have incurred damages, there is a legal premise called "Promissory Estoppel"

Uh...... Walmart.com is a very successful website. They typically wouldn’t be any slower than an other company. In other words, they should be very responsive. Have you tried calling them? Have you tried calling their office? Contacting other people at their office?

Hi. I am really curious about your case. I am a Walmart recruiter, and I would like to investigate. Please DM me and let's see what's up.

The background check results are valid only for a month or less and hence they do it closer to the joining date. If you have not agreed on a joining date, then you need to speak to the recruiter or HM. Also joining dates aren’t very strict. Even in off case you don’t get your ead by July1, they won’t mind postponing your joining by a week or 2 or until you get your card. Do not worry Too much into it.

Bgc results are valid for 3 months

Somehow hard to believe it took this far, do you really meant since Aug. 2018 or it was a typo? I am not doubting you. One thing I can tell you, wmt has worst useless HR and recruiter related departments. I know a guy who’s Sams club to Walmartlabs internal transfer took 10 months. Sorry to hear your experience, be proactive to follow up or try other options too.
