Your article is from FEB 10, 2014. Seems pretty irrelevant with what Walmart has done since then

I don't think they abuse their workers. It is a competitive business with low tech, low skill employees. I'm not knocking those employees, just acknowledging reality,, Political activity in the USA is the reason for the lack of job security. If you give people full time, you'll become saddled with benefit packages. More expense in difficult times. It's just business.

They lost money and market position which forced them into a no-brainer, so they came around to their better business senses. If you do not value the source of your production you will not get value out of your production. From what I've seen historically in business, that $2.7B is to make up for what they lost as I described. If their Band-Aid works, they'll have lost $2.7B. If it works.
The article is old and Wal-Mart has improved it's practices. However, saying someone that stands on their feet all day and lifts does not deserve certain wages compared to someone that sits on their ass and stares at a computer monitor is insane. Manual labor needs more respect. Without these people, someone that sits on their ass 9 hours a day would not be able to spend the money they've easily earned. I've worked jobs...hell I work in healthcare now and stand on my feet all day and am in physical pain during my shift, yet I make less than someone who works on a computer lol.
If Walmart has so many personnel problems then why is it so successful? The OP link managed to name two much smaller competitors that pay more (on average) but neither of which offer the variety or flexibility of Walmart. Can you get your car's oil changed, do your banking, pick up prescriptions, while you shop for clothing, household items, beer, sporting goods, ammo and groceries at these competitors? Walmart is not perfect but it offers the customer much more opportunity to get a bit of anything and everything..
Walmart is the leader it's not forced into anything
I can go online to Amazon and get a greater variety at lower prices than Walsmart. I stopped going to Walsmart when what I wanted wasn't there that I could get online delivered at a lower cost. THAT's business.

Then why not work on a computer? Because of skills, anyone can do manual labor which is why it's less valued.
What an idiotic thing to say. Do you buy groceries on Amazon? :roll:
You can if you want, that is one of the things they are trying to work on and promote.
I thought most of Walmarts products came from the Peoples Paradise of China where the workers have he greatest working conditions making less and working more than the average Walmart employee.
