Walmart Case Study

Walmart is an international company founded by Sam Walton in 1962. It all started out in a small town in Rogers, Arkansas, but it’s headquarter is in Bentonville, Arkansas. It is one of the largest discount retailer who focus on low affordable costs for consumers. It sales everything from clothes, shoes, electronics, outdoors accessories, house appliances, grocery, and more. Also, it has an auto repair shop. It has over 11,000 stores with over 2 million employees and it also operates Sam’s Club. In the U.S., Walmart has six operating divisions which includes Supercenter, Discount Stores, Neighborhood Market, Supermercado de Walmart, Walmart Express, and Initiatives. One of the Walmart I’ve worked at, which is a Supercenter, is located in a small town called Philadelphia, Mississippi.
Skill Variety
When it comes to Walmart you doesn’t need many skills variety to perform the job but you do need basic skills like knowing how to read because you have be able to read labels to know where specific products go, and also you need to know how to work technology like computers and hand held guns which is for signing in for your tasks and using to pick and bin (which is the overnight shift job but sometimes it becomes our job too when we finish our tasks a little earlier). Other skills would be knowing how to use a latter, being able to lift heavy

Basically, everything that come to Walmart is already put together, so I can’t go to a specific product and say I made this because it has my number or whatever on it. I may can say that I brought this product to the floor to be stocked, which still would hard to identify, but other than that there really isn’t no task identity at Walmart. There isn’t any recommendations for this characteristics because there is not anything you have to make, mostly you’re just sorting things out to their respective department.
