Hi All, Planning to join Walmart Availability platform- Global Tech/ Item inventory as product manager role seems to be interesting. Appreciate if anyone can provide insights on PERM processing, are they still continuing perm application in Walmart, also any silent layoffs or Amazon PIP culture? Any info on team culture/ wlb? Location- Bay Area Thanks🙏 #tech #walmart #productmanager
Did they do any layoffs in last 6 months ?
Tc ?
No free lunches.
Perm process for most new employees is stopped. Check with HR/Immigration before accepting.
Is this a confirmed news? I shared my details with immigration and they went ahead so wondering why would they hire H1 if they don’t do Perm any more..
Its not confirmed thats is why its good to check. There have been some changes for sure. Better check than regretting later. Also, your manager will need to be aligned on agreeing to the GC process as it will come out of his/her budget.
People in International are all expecting layoffs by end of year. They are moving all the work to the US side and there’s nothing to do. Make sure your role is with the US team to be safe.
What do you mean by people in International? Can you elaborate?
US website serves customers in the US. Canada, Mexico, China, Chile, and South Africa all have their own websites/app/comms. The international team handles that work. But, starting with Canada, then Mexico, the teams are shifting all the sites to match the US. Once that’s complete, US can do all the maintenance from their side with their teams. So what do all the people in International on those teams do?
Perm process has been stopped for most of the new employees is what I heard but still no official news on that.
Can I DM you? Would you know when do they do Perm - at joining or after few months? I’m wondering what would be my options if they don’t do Perm, would it mean I have to leave?
Can you please mention about your TC. I would say join if you they are paying good. Small layoffs happens all the time but I don’t think that’s something to worry about
Proof ?
They also wiped out a product org the end of last year. Even took out the Sr. Director on that one. That product org has been spiraling ever since and causing a lot of prioritization issues.
