Walmart yesterday announced a new structure that includes wage increases for employees that include up to $30 an hour for managers of its supercenters.
Chief Operating Officer Dacona Smith said in a news release, the company is "introducing a team-based operating model in our Supercenters - similar to the one that has been very successful at Sam’s Club over the past year and in our Neighborhood Market stores this year.
We’re investing in new roles and skill training to give us the flexibility to serve customers anytime and anywhere. In turn, associates will have more room for career and pay growth."
Walmart said it will create “small teams of associates who will be cross-trained and given ownership of the work and their area for everything from in-stock to visul standards.”
The new roles at Supercenters will be store lead (formerly co-manager), coach (formerly assistant manager) and team lead (formerly department manager).

Associates not chosen for the new lead roles can remain in their current job or will be offered a similar position with the same pay through at least October 2021, the company said.
“The new wage ranges for the hourly team lead roles start at between $18 and $21 an hour and can go up to $30 an hour in Supercenters,” Walmart said.
"In addition, we’re investing in specific, skilled frontline hourly positions in Supercenters.
The minimums for hourly associates in the deli and bakery areas are increasing from $11 an hour to $15 or higher.
Pay is also being raised for several hourly auto care center roles. Most associates in these roles will receive a base pay increase of $1 or more per hour. These specialized roles are an essential part of our business.
Overall, we are raising wages for approximately 165,000 hourly associates across all Walmart U.S. stores."
