God, I hate saying anything remotely nice about Walmart but that is what this link says

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2019/05/08/walmart-wages-what-do-walmart-managers-and-hourly-workers-make/1147546001/

also:
In February, Walmart introduced paid time off that employees can use when they're sick or otherwise need to miss work. For having spotless attendance, employees can earn an additional 25% on their quarterly bonuses.

The retail giant also has increased education options for employees and trained about 450,000 employees last year through the Walmart Academy program.

----------------------

FWIW: I never went to Walmart until 1. The corner store closed. 2. I retired 3. I had a bum knee then knee replacement so I love their order online then pick it up. ( I'm a widow, so no help)

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

He should stand on principle and stop helping to feed the profits of both Amazon and Walmart. George II Jun 2019 #12

Do you support Bernie's principles? Uncle Joe Jun 2019 #16

Minimum wage in Vermont is $10.78 per hour. George II Jun 2019 #5

The point is his own state has a very low minimum wage. What has he done to get it raised? George II Jun 2019 #9

I believe you do know how our government works, don't you George? Uncle Joe Jun 2019 #11

What does that mean Joe? George II Jun 2019 #13

Bernie is not King, he's not even the governor of Vermont but more to the point Uncle Joe Jun 2019 #15

Yes, he's not King, nor does he sit on the Board of Walmart. George II Jun 2019 #17

He is a very powerful politician in his state. Blue_true Jun 2019 #35

Bazinga! George II Jun 2019 #34

Bernie is a US Senator infinite_wisdom Jun 2019 #21

If that's the case, why is he in Arkansas lecturing Arkansans about a $15 minimum wage? George II Jun 2019 #24

Because he's running for President... infinite_wisdom Jun 2019 #38

Then he should be in the well of the Senate talking about it, not a private company in Arkansas. George II Jun 2019 #41

Do you mean like this? Uncle Joe Jun 2019 #42

Yep. What's the status of that bill? How many members of the Walmart Board will vote on it? George II Jun 2019 #43

The CEO of Walmart now publicly supports raising the minimum wage although you know Uncle Joe Jun 2019 #44

The CEO of Walmart has supported raising the minimum wage as far back as 2015. George II Jun 2019 #45

Bernie has been pushing Walmart to raise the minimum wage even further back in time Uncle Joe Jun 2019 #46

As a Congressman and Senator it's his role to push a corporation to raise it's minimum wage? George II Jun 2019 #47
