I was having a conversation last month about Walmart Labs. apparently they try very hard to point out they are NOT Walmart. :)


Somehow I don't find that surprising at all.

Apparently they have a hard time recruiting as well due to the name.


Thats understandable. Walmarts brand is pretty much defined as "We treat our employees poorly, but look how cheap things are."

I wouldn't consider either of those factors good selling points for an employer.
