T4L: I don’t mean to be overly personal, but how long have you worked for Walmart and in what capacity? I ask for a couple of reasons: (1) I don’t know anybody who works for Walmart and that makes you something of an expert (so to speak) and (2) You hear a lot of stories going both ways about Walmart and Walmart’s impact on unions, retail, prices, etc.
I avoided Walmart like the plague for many years and largely because I didn’t approve of their stance on unionization. While I’m against unions personally, I think organizations that try to suppress unions are wrong and that workers have a right to unionize, if they so choose.
I had also heard stories about discrimination against female employees and wage/labor violations, such as failing to pay overtime.
I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on this subject.
