Walmart Trucking! Walmart pay, procedures, onboarding, benefits,

[@CoachMelFootball]

Just Pass My On Boarding down in Lauren’s, SC advice to all drivers going to on boarding. On the Driving test no speeding, don’t follow close, and do not hit any curbs. On the backing test get out and look do your 360. And on the Pre trip study everyday. Also come in with a great attitude because it’s not just about your driving skills listen and learn there way enjoy and have a good time and don’t stress yourself💪

[@WalmartRich]

I couldn't agree more

Rich, thank you so much for making this video ! By far, THE BEST Video I have seen on trucking. Unfortunately for me, I am getting a very late start getting my CDL at 56 years old. I guess I will not be allowed to even apply to Walmart for 3 more years. I plan on getting my CDL in the next 90 days. If your still driving for Walmart when I can qualify to apply with them I would be Happy to use your name as my referral. I'm justvsorry I did not get my CDL a couple of years ago so they would except my job application now. Hopefully for me this Awesome Job opportunity will still be available to me 2 or 3 years from now.

[@lexthebest7689]

good info thinking about gettin on haven't gotten back to them for phone interview yet

[@WalmartRich]

Over the past month or two they implemented a new system. The system crashed. It back up but many guys got lost in the process. If you waited more than 3 days from application to interview or a week from interview to onboarding you might need assistance. Just a heads up!

[@GG-ub4ej]

Another point to make at the 36 minute mark is very simply and sadly is if you don't use it you lose it. Associates are bending down and picking things up all the time. A driver develops a limited range of motion if they don't make a serious effort to avoid it. So it is safer and much better on the numbers for a store associate to do everything at the store they are supposed to do and let the drivers stand there and count.

[@WalmartRich]

Yes I try to explain in the nicest way possible that it's easier to call in an associate or hire an associate if something happens. To replace a driver is nearly impossible

[@jimb3541]

Net is impossible to avg. Too many different deductions. 401k, child support, tax levels, stock purchases, insurance plans etc. The avg driver does 105k the first year. 4000 a paycheck gross. I would think most guys are about 3k every 2 weeks bring home? My bring home is about 2700 every paycheck but I have almost every deduction possible.

A lot of Ralph's information is inaccurate. I even reached out to him to talk to him about it. He ignored me when he found out I was with Walmart. You gotta wonder why a guy that didn't get a job somewhere constantly wants to talk crap about a place that didn't hire him.? I have actually talked to people who were in his class. And I have learned some things about how he acted in behaved. And if they were being honest with me, it was not Walmart's fault at all, but I can't say that for certain.

[@WalmartRich]

They did slip seating long before covid etc. Each location has 50-150 guys in a program. This eliminates 50-100 trucks. If one location needed 50 trucks at 100k per truck. Thats a saving of 5million dollars in trucks alone. Factor in mechanical issues for each truck and the time they would sit on days off as well as where would they park 50+ trucks. They can't find spots for the ones they have. Its just not plausible foe each guy to have thier own truck.

My understanding is you need to go on the workday portal and look for a listing as close to you as possible. They only accept 12 of the applicants.

I’m considering doing the Associate to driver program out of woodland pa. Do you know if i be getting paid for training from day 1? And what is the Schedule like during training?

[@WalmartRich]

March. Fleet Development program is new. I am not sure if they have all the details worked out. Rumor has it you get paid your current t wage while in the 12 week training. They cover travel and lodging and a daily food allowance

[@shafeeqah1983]

I have my cdl A and a current walmart employee. They told me im eligibe for associte to driver program. Im just curious about the process. I see have to obtain my hazmat endorsement. Im so ready to start. How do they pay while in the training?

[@WalmartRich]

They will pay for your hazmat, so don't worry. Once you go on workday and apply to an associate to driver job you'll go through many interviews. Once your accepted you go through 12 weeks of training. The several weeks with a mentor. After a total of 18 weeks at a minimum your be in your own. While in the 12 weeks of training you'll earn your current pay. Once your driving with a mentor you'll earn driver pay.

[@shafeeqah1983]

They said the prgram opens quartely. I just found out about the program missed the application sept 3 😢. I've been out of school since 8/24. They told me to keep checking workday because they couldn't give me an exact date for the opening. Does anyone have an idea of when their quarters are? App was opened august (not sure the exact date) closed 9/3?

Could you go more into detail about Walmart's retirement plan? Who does Walmart use as their retirement plan administrator? Are there low-cost SP500 index Vanguard/Fidelity/Schwab funds? Do they offer true-up? How long until 100% vested? Thank you for this informative video.

[@WalmartRich]

I'll see what I can find out. I know the roth and the 401k are 6% match dollar for dollar. You get a 15% discount on stock purchase. The 401k app has literally 15-20 option on what to invest in. I don't know the specifics

[@michaelpfistner5820]

I've been off the road 4 years now. Don't know if that affects anything about driving for them, but I never really saw too many Walmart trucks parked at truck stops. Do they tell you to take your 10hr at DCs or park at the stores?

[@WalmartRich]

They prefer we take our breaks at stores or DCs

I've been trying for a while now to get hired by Walmart, but no positions in south Florida, Um about to move to central Florida next month, do you think I will have a chance?

[@WalmartRich]

Florida has been booked solid. 1 guy got in at Brooksville last week but I did not see any positions on the website. I think they are relaxing for a few weeks to see how the influx of drivers works out. They also had an issue with the switch from hireright to the new company. Maybe in a few weeks some jobs will open up.

[@js9849]

This is the only company that I’ve heard of that when they invite you for a job they “maybe” Will hire you based on “test” that they have created to evaluate you, so there’s a possibility that you quit your job and travel long hours and still may not get the job because someone said you didn’t live up to their standards. How many good drivers have ended up jobless dealing with this company? Drivers should take these people to court for firing them for no good reason

[@WalmartRich]

So you think a company should blindly hire and hope they don't lie about history or driving skills? This isn't swift!

But you can only make that amount of money starting with Walmart if you have over 2 years of experience. Coming right out of school I doubt it.

I have my orientation date for onboarding set up in the next couple months. Better to put my two weeks notice in the two weeks before that date or go through onboarding and then after I complete it put it in?

Question, what if I am on duty I finish stop and I just want to make a quick phone call before I head out. Do they penalize you for that

[@WalmartRich]

Technically if you were on duty and made a call the only way you would get in trouble is if you got in an accident and they pulled your phone records and found you to be in ciolation. Such as on the phone doing a pretrip/posttrip etc.

[@tjtj1692]

Hey man, I'm 24 and I want to be a truck driver but my family doesn't want me to, is being a trucker worth it, what do you think? Thanks!

[@WalmartRich]

Tell you family to give you a job making over 100k a year with 26 pto days, $1 for $1 match up to 6% in your 401k, blue cross blue shield insurance with free care if you have heart attacks, cancer, or joint issues, 15% discount on walmart stock, some of the best hometime in the industry, prograns such as walmart heart or wreaths across america (walmart donates to veterans and disabled kids) and the ability to be in a corporate management position in 3 years. If they can't give you that, tell to shut up and watch you! Now it won't be easy. You gotta get your cdl, work for a company like Prime or Schnider for 30 months all while making way less money and dealing with a lot of crap AND KEEP A CLEAN RECORD! If you can do it, it is VERY WORTH IT! If you want email me [e-mail]
