Technology and AI are Changing Jobs at Walmart: Here’s How


Listen Later

Walmart is one of the world’s largest retailers. With 2.1 million workers, it’s also one of the world’s largest private employers, and it’s hiring, including for tech jobs you’d expect to see in Silicon Valley. Walmart is investing billions into major tech upgrades that could change how many of its employees work, and investing millions of dollars into training its team for what comes next. In this conversation from the WSJ Jobs Summit, Walmart Chief People Officer Donna Morris tells the WSJ’s Chip Cutter about the roles the company is hiring for right now, and how it’s focusing on being “tech powered” without losing sight of the people who keep its stores running.
