I am in tech. I have had Walmart as a customer. Their use of technology is amazingly complex and challenging. They are on the bleeding edge on a number of things. Just because they do not look like Amazon publicly, does not mean they are not privately.

I think Walmart was one of the first to roll out real time inventory tracking/ tagging. In my experience big distopian megacorps are pretty enthusiastic on tech.

I know that Walmart Labs India office is good.

A quick internet search gives me these things.

Based on these, I would say they're investing heavily in tech. And their tech is interesting in some ways.

If you have any interest in supply chain or logistics, Walmart would be among the top places in the world to work.

Especially for Bensenville

It's not the kind of company great talent would have chosen in the first place. However, their best talent will be allowed to continue working remotely so they don't leave.

For awhile, starting around 2016, they poured money into an attempt to compete with Amazon. Not just compete, but get ahead of Amazon. They wanted to invent a 3D online retail experience, sort of like what Facebook started to do, but specific to retail. I was offered a job at the New Jersey office. They offered me $225, back in 2016, which is good and was very good for 2016.

But now I suspect they've given up on the effort.

Still happening I believe. Data scientist roles are around 260.

That's a little harsh, there's a lot of industries/niches that Walmart has stake and/or operate in that would require "good talent".
