Business outlook
Pros
It will give you the ability to lead the highest volume store in the world and ability to manage 400-500 plus people. If you like leading, teaching, and training others to be successful this may be a good job for a single person. Wal-Mart is a very charitable company that gives you a sense of pride in taking part in.
Cons
Store Managers are always on the chopping block and will throw any one under the bus if they are incapable of running the store. You can end up working all kinds of shifts and 80 hours plus with no additional compensation for long periods of time. Poor Store Managers often over work and bend the schedules of strong Assistant Managers Instead of holding the bad performers accountable.
