    Idk what you expect me to say, I put in my comment that it does happen especially at big publicly traded businesses. As I said in my comment only a third of the US works at such companies and Walmart doesn’t even represent all of that third. There are 163 million people employed in the US, Walmart employs ~1.6 million people in the US. That means Walmart represents about 3% of people who work at publicly traded business or 0.9% of people who work in the US.

    Honestly though, most people look at Walmart jobs as the bottom of the barrel, Walmart needs you more than you need them. I just looked up the career page for my local Walmart and they have 32 positions they are currently hiring for, with how few employees I see I wasn’t aware 32 people even worked there.
