I’ve lived in Trenton for several years, and while this Walmart location has always been the “backup plan” for groceries and cosmetics, today was likely the last time I’ll set foot in the building.
Management needs to either grow a backbone against corporate, or develop compassion towards associates, or some mix of the two. Every single worker I passed to during my visit was visibly frustrated or upset. I’m talking tears in their eyes, shaking their heads, or a complete and near-horrified despondence.
However it is these workers are being treated, whether by customers or management, it’s evident to anyone with empathy that it’s abysmal.
Too few staff, with too little training (some of the situations inferred by emphatic overhead PA calls would’ve been comical if not so tragic), working for too small pay.
That doesn’t even touch on the fact that every single regularly-stocked item I was looking for today was out of stock. All of them, across several departments. Kitty litter, hand soap, wiper fluid, coffee cream. This entire store is broken and needs to either be turned around or shuttered.
