Welcome to “I hate Wal-mart”.com.
Wal-mart has become the largest
corporation in the world. Many would say
that they accomplished this feat by
abusive employer tactics, bullying their
suppliers, etc. Stories are rampant
about how Wal-Mart beats up suppliers
into providing goods at lower margins
which then forces these suppliers to
outsource American Jobs to China. The
list of accusations against Wal-Mart is
many.
But are they true? As with any
accusation, there are truths and
fabrication. As the largest company of
its kind, it is easy to pick on
Wal-Mart. What would be the point on
picking on the mom and pop store down
the street? Besides, when Wal-Mart moved
in, they went out of business. As a
large corporate behemoth, Wal-Mart has
the power and financial strength to do
things most corporations do not have,
such as political wrangling.
So, is
Wal-Mart evil, or just taking advantage
of the situation given to them? Sears,
Kmart and others all had a chance to
succeed the way Wal-Mart did, but were
not able to. Bad Luck? Bad Management?
Maybe. Within these pages, you will be
able to explore the thoughts of others
in regards to Wal-Mart policies and
practices. Additionally, unlike other
sites, this site has up-to-date news
feeds on certain activities of Wal-Mart
such as lawsuits, discrimination, hiring
practices, etc. Enjoy. Do not be shy.
