Whatââ¬â¢s wrong with Walmart?
Adding to the articles provided in the class, I chose Walmart Mexico Bribery Case and Walmart Offers Jobs to Veterans. Reading these articles, I once much supposition that Walmart is a huge corporation. Walmart employs about 1. 4 million people in the United States. They operate more than 10,800 retail units under 69 banners in 27 countries. In 2013, the magazine Fortune ranked Walmart as a biggest company in the United States. These numbers both show that Walmart is a large company and it is hard to operate.Walmart have a important office in Arkansas, and the chief executive and board penis invite all the important decisions and policy of the company. However, if the company has so numerous employees and the shops, it is difficult to control all the employees. Thus in the Pollutant Dumping Case, the Walmart California store improperly disposed hazardous waste. The aboriginal office had a comprehensive and industry-leading hazardous waste program, but this issue made it clea r that some(a) of the workers were not aware how to handle hazardous waste.Additionally, the other article was about the Walmart protest movement. At first, I did not know about the OUR Walmart, but I was surprised to point out this organization. I could not find out how big the organization is, but the existence of OUR Walmart itself tells us that Walmart have many workers and the workers opinion is hard to reach to the chief executive. As a result they make protest movements to admit for better wages and improved working conditions.All in all, the recent Walmart issue is the evidence that the central office is struggling to control all of the shops in the U. S. and the other countries. All of the big companies with shops in many locations will suffer to manage the workers. To solve this problem it is necessary to make manual, guidelines, instructions, hotlines, help lines, and audits. If the company failed to make these systems and have a high commitment with the top manager, th e company will likely to corrupt or make mistakes like Walmart.
