What Others Are Saying

"Wal-Mart, the nation's largest private employer, provides insurance to 100,000 more workers than it did just three years ago — and it is now easier for many to sign up for health care at Wal-Mart than at its rival, Target." The New York Times, Michael Barbaro and Reed Abelson, 11/13/08

In August 2008, Wal-Mart China was named a "2008 Best Employer" by Manpower Resources and PKU Business Review. And in March 2009, it was named a "2009 Best Employer" by the management consulting firm hewitt.
