To improve employee retention, Walmart announced significant pay increases for store managers earlier this year. Some managers could now earn up to $530,000 annually.
Greg Harden, a store manager, was so surprised by the news that he "almost fainted," according to Bloomberg. The report states that Harden oversees a team of over 400 employees and manages a Grand Prairie, Texas, store that generates over $100 million in sales annually. The store is one of the largest in the Dallas area.
