I’ve personally done business  with Walmart, and the narrative being pushed couldn’t be further from the truth. Walmart is an exceptional company that made a bold, strategic move by migrating its entire data infrastructure to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) a massive undertaking that reflects its commitment to technological excellence.

But here’s the key part everyone ignores: Walmart didn’t just invest in technology; they invested heavily in their people. They allocated significant resources to train their existing staff, fully funding GCP certifications and ensuring employees were equipped to grow alongside the company’s evolving tech landscape.

This isn’t a company cutting corners. Walmart offers competitive salaries and fosters an environment that prioritizes employee development and long-term success. It’s a forward-thinking organization that deeply values its workforce while driving innovation at scale.
