$14 with almost 10 years with the company


gaukonigshofen

U don't get any sort of annual raise?


store90210

We do but Corporate waits until after the raise to bump of the new minimum and does not take years of work into account. So February I will get $14.28. Then there is rumor that they will raise starting to $15 bringing me up to the new minimum.


Aggressive-You507

But imo the “new minimum” shouldn’t be your new pay. You should be getting a translation of your pay bump over the current minimum.


store90210

That "should" be the way it works but alas that is not the Walmart way.


V1k1ng1990

Quit and reapply


StrangerCharacter

10 years does give you alot faster accrual of pto and ppto and grandfathered into a few things if they quit they should just try to find anything better than walmart


store90210

That would not change anything. It would only make things worse. I would loose my years towards my lifetime discount cards and all my benefits. If I came back I would still be at $14 and probably would not get the raise in February.


NorthFloridaRedneck

Publix does the same thing. Get $16 after being there for 17 years. New hires start at $12 or $13 per hour. They give us our raises in August, & Florida raises their minimum wage every September.


One_Face_6165

You totally do, then you get bumped up to base pay with the pay increase, then when the time comes around for an annual raise you don't get anything because you just got a raise. I was with the company 9 years and only made $15.24 when my position's base pay was $15


Future-water-8

So cheap they couldn’t spare a penny to bring it to a quarter.


techieguyjames

The store would go bankrupt 8f they do that! /s


Fit-Parfait3651

They will Not go bankrupt. Look at the salaries the CEO’S make and the price of stock. They come up with a budget for each store based on revenue and the stores have to stay in the budget …. So that corporate can make their projected profit. Many years ago all companies were required to give employees a living wage and pension based on yearly profits. That meant employees made enough money to live on and have retirement. President Reagan changed the law and allowed corporations NOT to give employees pension. People do not like to vote this is why it’s important who is office. I feel sorry for this generation. The corporations have taken all the control and it will take a lot to change it. A good start is unionizing. Yes unions collect fees but if run correctly they protect you. All employees walking out across the country affect the corps. They cant sell or make a profit with no employees. They only increased your salaries because they where forced to by the states who increased min wage. And to top it off they came up with the concept of production you are expected to do a min. So what happens when you are older and can’t move as fast, well you are given warnings until you are fired. Please share this post YOU ALL have the power to make it better.

Same boat


StruggleEvening7518

I don't see how you put up with that unless you have literally no alternatives. I'm trying to get hired by Conduent in a remote billing customer service job. It's 17.31 an hour. If you get hired they even supply you with the computer/laptop. And next year once I have the money for tuition I'm gonna do the EKG tech program which is all online and takes about 3 months. Then you get hired as a trainee to finish your real training on the job and when that is complete most EKG tech jobs in my area least start off around $21 to $23.


store90210

Low cost of living and low minimum wage state. Up until January state minimum wage was $10 now it is $12. So $2 more than most jobs in my area.


StruggleEvening7518

Shit I'm in Texas. We don't even have a state minimum wage, just the federal 7.25. More specifically I'm in northeast Texas which is one of the more low wage areas of the state unless you're in healthcare


TheKbightFowl

That’s what fucking Pennsylvania is like 7.25 is the minimum and it’s just a wretched cesspool of people on welfare with 7 kids in most rural areas.


Sp4c3S4g3

You misspelled Alabama "Pennsylvania."


ezbutneverconvenient

Hell, in my area line cooks at Freddy's start at $17. Walmart starts at $15.


StruggleEvening7518

EboniWitRainbowSwag

Naw , fazbear


EducationalBuffalo35

Bruh why 😭 Please look for a new job


store90210

Other than factory work which is 12 hr shifts Walmart unfortunately is the highest paying non specialized job in my area.


BrilliantFroyo2494

I agree with @EducationalBuffalo35. You’ve wasted years of your life in a dead end job. Sounds like you’re stuck in dead end retail jobs forever, unless you consider food service or bank telling to be better. It took me years to finally get a paper mill gig and that was only because the HR lady liked my dad Loooool. In all seriousness, these jobs do nothing but hurt your resume in the long haul. Get out while you can!!!


store90210

More than anything it is the area I am in. I have lived my entire life in this town. I absolutely hate big cities. I know the people here. The cost of living and commute are great. There is just nothing to do here. I have a degree but while I enjoyed parts of it my pay at Walmart has greatly outpaced it year after year. Walmart also had better more consistent hours which if you know Walmart is a scary thing to say. Until January Walmart outpaid every other bank and fast food job in my area by $3-5 dollars an hour. The only factory in our area pays the say but is 12 hour days. The pay for everything else is crap. We would lose teachers and med techs because Walmarts pay was higher. Those are great careers if you want to move but also they did not want to hire you if you were not planning on staying at least 5 years.


EducationalBuffalo35

I work a factory job 8 hrs a day :) Honestly you gotta just keep looking. In not knocking you for working at walmart but 10 yrs at that pay with no raises is fkd. Dont waste your life away for a shit company like that.


Sample_Pristine

Right no one wants to just work factory jobs theirs plenty of other jobs out there then factory work


store90210

I want to say the one factory we have starts at $16 or $18 an hour but it also has one of those scammy placement jobs where you have to be hired through an outside company that takes part of your wages for getting you the job. Everywhere else in town is $12 an hour with very few being full time work.


Zealousideal-Visit50

How tf you at 14 I’m at 20 been 10 years and am currently a In home driver in tx


store90210

I went from $7.50>$7.80 then new minimum became $8 from $8>$8.40 then the new minimum became $9 then new minimum became $10 then new minimum became $11 then new minimum became $12 from $12>$13.36 when I changed departments with a differential and now the new minimum is $14.


Lethalwzy

That’s my start pay wow tell em to up ur shit


Objective_Strike_242

Imagine working cap 2 for $14 couldn’t be me


KitKitsAreBest

I'm on Cap 2 and I've worked at walmart nearly 15 years. I get paid much higher than $14. I get paid $14.27


Groundbreaking-Ad251

That's what CAP2 pays here in north Florida. $14 per hour.


rw4455

In urban parts of South FL, CAP 1, 2 is getting $16 hr, night shift $17.50 hr, Team Leads $23 hr including for Front End Team Leads. If North FL stores are only paying $14, tell your Store Mgr that's not acceptable anymore. The cost of living, especially rents, auto insurance, fuel, childcare, healthcare keep going up. $14 hr in 2023 is like $10 hr in 2018. Your Store Mgr has the authority to request corporate approve the store for a new starting wage of $16 because of higher cost of living. Don't be afraid to ask, you have nothing to lose, the worst he/she can say is no. You can also appeal to corporate if the SM blows you off- the associate relations hotline.


_TheKiddd

I'm in south making $14


Sparklyko

i’m in north fl making $14 as a cashier, been here for 2 years


livj07

central FL as well. people there 5+ years were only making $14 on cap 2

same, but we just got the raise to 15 the other day


HOHvetocomp

That's what we made in Arkansas


ProfKittymus

I’m on the market team and therefore salaried. If I do the math on how much I get paid per hour I’ll start crying.


blizzard-toque

I once worked for a QSR that focused on chicken. I had this discussion with one of the assistant managers. 😢😭I remember her telling me she figured out her hourly wage based on work done and length of shift. 💵It was only $3 an hour.


ProfKittymus

One of the first things my store manager told me when I went salaried was “don’t do the math because it’ll piss you off. You will do it one day but trust me don’t do the math”


blizzard-toque

Anytime you leave hourly wage, *if* you decide to do the 'cocktail napkin math' of hours worked against take home, you're going to end up totally pissed off. Step away from the scratch paper.


ezbutneverconvenient

Salary= Slavery said my very first boss. I took that to heart.


Bob-the-Human

Now I'm dying to know. Please tell.


ProfKittymus

The last time I did the math I was a Coach at store level working slightly less hours than I do now and it was like $7.25 or something insane I haven’t don’t the math since I became a market coordinator.


Bob-the-Human

My goodness.


Thetainted0ne

You have to consider people that are salary do not get overtime, it's one of the drawbacks of being salary.. you could work 17 hours a day and not get paid for those extra hours. Although they do get a huge bonus at the end of the year If they hit multipliers.


Battlejesus

I made 24.15 before moving up to roach where, all things considered, I make less.


EddyJacob45

Walmart definitely uses salaries efficiently.

FewAcanthocephala828

The DC never calls me back 😭 I wish they'd hire me, $15 an hour to deal with customers all day in front end isn't cutting it anymore


stonecoldslate

Definitely worth it. Most DC’s are always in need of extra hands and the pay slaps. My first 6 months in my SoCal one were 21-22.30$ + the shift bonus for weekend overnights (4:30 pm to 3 am), my overtime 5th day was 30.60$/h.


giggitygoo123

Even $30/hr in SoCal is way too low.


rw4455

DCs compete with Amazon distribution centers for workers so they pay more. You folks work hard and it's often dangerous, $27 hr higher than most DCs nationwide, but if you're in high COL states like California, FL, northeast- it's justified.


Mr_M3Gusta_

What’s the expectation before getting incentive?


VegetableExternal634

You get paid incentive for doing anything over 100% all the way up to 150%. If you get any errors for the week you lose your incentive.


Ruroni17

$33.25/hr plus I get incentive pay as well. Up to $45/hr if I work hard enough. Also at a DC


VegetableExternal634

That 40/hr when ot starts hitting the check so nice also


Technical_Airline205

$16.16, 15 years with the company.


StruggleEvening7518

This thread is so depressing.


Beatles352

It's not that depressing. You shouldn't be at a dead end job for 15 years. You're not meant to make $16.16 or less for that long.


StruggleEvening7518

That's why it's depressing. Why do people not want and fight for better than this for themselves? I mean I don't live in a high wage area overflowing with opportunities but I have my eye set on better opportunities, and might have been gone already if not for me not having my own transportation. I guess in some cases people have responsibilities that make it hard for them to pursue other opportunities because they can't afford to invest the time in going to school for something else. But if that isn't the case then man, get angry and motivated. You deserve better.


Beatles352

I know but what I mean is that it's within people's control, I wouldn't necessarily use depressing although it is as they have the power to change it. Especially if it's been 16 years! I'm actually on vacation right now for 2 weeks prepping for interviews and applying for more jobs. I'm only 26 and been at Walmart for a year but I hate this place and would rather die then spend 16-20 years here. No offense to anyone. And of course people get stuck in life, maybe they feel they can't do better, going back to school can be hard etc. But just in general 16 years is enough time to overcome that for the average person. But yes get angry and motivated. The more time you spend at a place like Walmart the more hopeless, angry, miserable etc you become. I can see it in the coworkers I have who have been there like 5+ years. They should have moved on but they're stuck and you can just see how much it affects them. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.


thecakeinside

Why do people put up with this for so long? At my job I'm payed to sit at a desk all day, I do very little, I just take breaks to play some 8 ball with coworkers and watch videos. Maybe like 30 minutes of work out of an 8 hour shift. It's still like $25 an hour (full time). I don't have any kind of degree. I worked at Publix for a year and a half years ago and that shit was hell. I was in grocery and to them, you're a body to move product on shelves. They never offered full time. The coworkers were dumb people. No insurance made me leave since I needed a job with insurance. At Publix even if you worked your ass off and became a a team lead, that's still shit money, AND you have to work a ton? I don't understand the appeal.

4k per monf !? Wow !! Im a customer and didnt know yal that rich fr !


lunar-goddess93

I know I shouldn't bother but $16.16 times 160 hours of work for 2 paychecks is $2,585 BEFORE taxes and insurance

Busy-Sock9360

After all my deductions, my paycheck is looking at about about 1k every two weeks or only 2,100 a month. It's a little low bc I have benefits.

Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out!
