Walmart's scholarship program
One of the few things I can say Walmart gets right is their associate scholarship program. It’s not something they advertise a lot, but it’s actually a really good opportunity for anyone looking to continue with their education while working there. They’ll cover part of your tuition, which can really take the edge off if you’re juggling school and work. I just wanted to write this post because I only recently found out about this and wanna spread the word. Good luck.
I had no idea Walmart even offered this. Figures they wouldn’t go out of their way to let people know about it
I’ve heard of people getting the scholarship and saying it made a huge difference for them, but not every store even brings it up to new hires, well why would they encourage people to spend company's money...

I actually looked into the scholarship program once, but the application process seemed so complicated I gave up halfway through
