Walmart to lay off hundreds of corporate staff and relocate others, WSJ reports
==========

Walmart is cutting hundreds of corporate jobs and asking most remote workers to move to offices. Workers at smaller offices in Dallas, Atlanta, and Toronto are being asked to move to other central hubs. Walmart will still allow staff to work remotely part time. Walmart employed approximately 2.1 million associates as of Jan. 31, 2024. The company has been shrinking its workforce and expects about 65% of its stores to be serviced by automation by the end of fiscal year 2026. In February 2023, it shut three U.S. technology hubs and asked workers to relocate. Walmart did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
