About Walmart

From a humble beginning as a small discount retailer in Rogers, Ark., Walmart has opened thousands of stores in the US and expanded internationally. 

Leveraging innovation, they create a seamless experience to let customers shop anytime and anywhere online, through mobile devices and in stores. They aim at constantly creating opportunities and bringing value to customers and communities around the globe. 

Walmart currently operates approximately 11,500 stores under 56 banners in 27 countries and eCommerce websites in 10 countries. They employ approximately 2.2 million associates around the world — 1.5 million in the US alone.

Walmart Labs is the Technology centre of excellence for Walmart globally, with technologists across a spectrum of skills and experiences to drive transformation for the Fortune 1 organisation. 

They work towards building a workforce that is at the top of the game in an increasingly competitive landscape. Attracting and retaining diverse innovative talent capital is a key priority for the organisation.

Culture 

“Outstanding leaders go out of their way to boost the self esteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it’s amazing what they can accomplish.

  — Sam Walton, Founder of Walmart

The company’s culture is defined by the vision of their founder Sam Walton and Walmart’s company values. 

Culture is the foundation of everything they do at Walmart. 

Walmart’s culture drives them to deliver superior customer service, create a great frontline work environment and improve performance in order to achieve their common purpose of saving people’s money so that they can live better.

The Walmart culture is one of high performance. 

Each of their four values — Service to the Customer, Respect for the Individual, Strive for Excellence and Act with Integrity, is practiced daily by every associate, which helps them deliver business results and create a culture of inclusion.

Growth always requires an aspirational workplace. Their values help them provide an inclusive environment to their associates and a strong cultural definition.

Diversity manifests itself in building a great reputation for the company, leading to increased profitability and opportunities and motivation of teams. 

At Walmart, they believe that they are best equipped to help their associates, customers and the communities they serve live better when they really know them. That means understanding, respecting and valuing diversity — unique styles, experiences, identities, ideas and opinions — while being inclusive of all people.
