  • Hey, it's Kate.

  • We're off for President's Day,

  • but we wanted to share an episode we made last year about us retail giant Walmart.

  • In this episode we look at how Walmart compensates some of its store managers with bonuses,

  • stock options and huge six figure salaries.

  • We followed one manager to see why the job demands such high pay and Perks.

  • It's about 7 in the morning at a Walmart outside of Waco,

  • Texas and Nicole Hart is getting the download from her night manager.

  • Good morning everybody.

  • Good morning.

  • How's everybody doing?

  • Great.

  • The night manager told her

  • that some people didn't show up for their shifts overnight

  • and the letter T on the Walmart sign outside is burnt out.

  • Those are things that Nicole would have to deal with that day.

  • But first she takes a lap around the store.

  • Yeah, because I do this every single day.

  • This is my morning.

  • Every morning we walk and we tour.
