Wal-Mart Watch Launches “Wal-Mart Employees Speak Out”

Today marks the debut of a new project from Wal-Mart Watch: Wal-Mart Employees Speak-Out. The new website is a chance for Wal-Mart’s employees and former employees to talk about how the retailer’s low wage, poor benefits business model impacts their lives. The site features user-submitted material in the form of comments, stories, and video testimonies. Check it out at: http://walmartspeakout.com.

Wal-Mart workers often face retaliation for speaking out about the many problems at the company. This website is a chance for them to speak out – anonymously, in many cases – without fear of being fired or demoted. The project comes at a time when working Americans are suffering more than ever, but while Wal-Mart reaps record profits as the largest corporation in the world.

Are you a former or current employee of Wal-Mart that has a story to share? Click here to SPEAK OUT! All entries will be kept anonymous unless authorized. Speaking out helps others fight the unfair treatment Wal-Mart is infamous for. Help transform Wal-Mart into the kind of workplace it claims to be, and speak out against unfair policies at the company.

WalMartWatch’s “New Website” is Much Addo About Nothing!

So whats been stopping any of these past/present employees of Walmart from posting their stories here at: http://walmartwatch.com/blog?

Note to WMW Media Team: Focus on managing/editing/monitoring one website before you start another one.

“Note to WMW Media Team: Focus on managing/editing/monitoring one website before you start another one.”

I wish I had a dollar for every pro/anti Wal-Mart sites that have been born, lived, and died. The history of the domain walmartsucks is a perfect example.

Sites come and go. The Anti Wal-Mart Movement is eternal!

Let’s hope you’re wrong about that, Ken. This would imply that Wal-Mart is eternal.

Screwedby,

“Let’s hope you’re wrong about that, Ken. This would imply that Wal-Mart is eternal.”

Nope, Ken is right, you are fighting a losing battle and Wal-Mart will still be around, after you and Ken are long gone!!
