Walmart

Well Walmart I gave you another chance and you fucked me again.
Hi my name is Chelsea Steuwer. I usually don’t write to companies but I felt I really needed to when it came to my local walmart in Cornelius, Oregon. I ordered 1 hour photos yesterday around 8pm for Christmas on 12/​22/​2015. The photos were supposed to be done by today 12÷23− when I went into the store around 1pm to pick them up they were not ready. They said they would express the order and it would take 10minutes, so I went shopping for a bit. When I came back 15min. later they handed me my photos but asked me to pay. I was confused because I thought I paid for them already online. They said no I didn’t, so I proceeded for the 2^nd time to pay again. When I went to my car I opened up the package and these were not my photos. I had given him my name and everything how could he get this wrong? I had to go back in the store and correct the situation. He said I must be the wrong «Hutchinson» the last name he repeated back to me. I said no… my last name is Steuwer. He apologized and said it would be another 15minutes and that I could get my refund at the counter for the ladies pictures I had paid for. So I went to the counter and the lady didn’t know how to put the money back on my credit card so she called a manager to over ride to give me cash… I waited even longer… I finally went back over to collect my photos as I was running late for work at this point and the guy told me it looks like my photos got sent to the bottom of the list and in the meantime other people’s photos were printing instead. I was like are you kidding me!!! I was waiting over an hour and half at this point! I ended up walking out of the store and saying he needed to figure it out so I could pick them up after work then I mean I had already paid for them. He said he would email a manager to let them know I could pick them up after work at 11pm since the customer service side would be closed. Honestly I want a refund or something done about this. It’s not right! 1 hour guarantee and I have waited almost 3 days now! I can’t stand ever going back to this store I have nothing but problems every time I go there! I need someone to care and to fix this it would be so appreciated!

Customer service is a complete joke. Especially in the photo department where they have no clue as to what they’re doing.

Horrible workers in delivery and pick up – very rude and have no idea what they are talking about. Deli place beef was bleeding and when I picked it up it bled on my hand. Gross!!! Someone needs to clean this place up and hire nicer workers, but it’s Walmart so what can ya do? Guess I’ll go to Target next time.

I always give this store a second Chance. I always regret it… o .ever so much. Avoid this store if you can.

The customer service is terrible and it’s not clean. The quality of anything in grocery not packaged is poor. But I have to say, if I want storage bins or toys or stuff for yard upkeep, I go here…

I like this Walmart. The staff on the floor is pretty friendly and helpful. The cashiers however, are hit or miss. Sometimes you get a super friendly one, sometimes you get a super pissed off one. The customers though, are the most. I’ve heard many customers yell and argue with more cashiers than I care to remember. But hey, it’s Walmart, so I guess that’s the crowd that frequents there.

Well… it’s Wal-​Mart. This store is better than the store over on 82^nd, that’s for damn sure. But its quite a ways out in BFE. I’ve only been here a couple of times, when I am in need a «cheap» stuff. My friend and I like to come late at night and people watch while doing our shopping. It’s actually like a monthly event now. HAHA.
But yeah, the store is clean, good selection of produce and other food. Hella Mexican candy if you’re into that.
The employees are not that friendly and the last time we were there, it smelt like someone threw a bunch of stink bombs around the store. It smelt SO bad!!! We had the giggles the whole time because of it.
The parking lot is also huge, similar to a Costco lot without all the traffic.

I had purchased a printer from
. Unfortunately it was defective right out of the box. Since I live in Beaverton, there isn’t a Walmart close by. Cornelius was the closest one. (a 40 minute drive)
I was met at the door by a friendly woman who directed me to customer service when she saw that I had a return. Customer service was a short wait and the gentleman I spoke to was very helpful and nice. He directed me back to electronics to find the printer I wanted. I found my way there and was greeted by a nearly empty shelf of printers to choose from. :(Seriously? There was a grand total of 5! 3 of those were a brand that is notoriously cheap and useless. Luckily I found a brand I could live with. The exchange at customer service went smoothly and I decided to shop for a few other things.
Unfortunately I found the rest of the store much like the shelf of printers… almost empty. (maybe they were due for their shipment soon?) Overall I found this store messy and unorganized. Not impressed.
I do give kudos to the staff here however… from the greeter, the people in customer service, and my cashier were all very nice. Not something you usually hear! Don’t think I’ll come back here. I think I can wait until the store in Sherwood is done.

Oh the dreadful feeling that one gets by having to go to Walmart in the middle of the night. Yeah, they were the only place opened that had what I needed… Locking hitch pins, padlocks and other locks for a utility trailer. Daytime the normals come out, at night the floor is covered with items to be put away and very few normal people. Choices of needed items not so great, but doable given the situation.

This Walmart is just like other Walmarts. It’s not a five star Walmart because their staff aren’t always in the best of moods or very nice to deal with. Sometimes they just don’t seem to care about the customer but about just getting their shift done and over with. I’ve been to this location plenty of times just because it’s the only Walmart that is close to me.
There have been a couple of times when I’ve gone and the bathrooms are closed and you have to go all the way to the back bathrooms. Or if the front bathrooms are open they aren’t clean or they aren’t stocked up.
The Walmart itself is in nice shape and is normally clean and kept up with.

I’m from San Diego, CA where Walmart’s are on every freaking major street. Alas, Oregon has only a handful of Walmart’s– and they’re not all super centers! =(I almost moved back home on this basis alone. I was THRILLED to find my home away from home here in my new home! (Did ya catch that?) I first visited the Walmart in Portland but since I live in Beav it was too long a drive in traffic comparable to LA just to save a couple bucks. I resigned myself to shopping at safeway (Vons for us Californians) and «Tarje» for my first few months in OR… but then the stars aligned and the Gods found favor on me when I got a new job out in Forest Grove right across from Walmart… making this location a multiple times a week stop for me. So for all the Walmart bashers– Just be thankful there is one out here in these sticks! It’s like the only thing in this area that lets me know this city exists. This is NOT the best location I’ve ever been to but I’ve been to worse. I must confess I have never been in this store during peak hours so I can’t speak on the lines! I come in after 9:30pm and typically before 830am only. I’ve seen it completely empty with cashiers standing around fighting for you to come to their line b/​c they’re bored, and I’ve seen it with 2 long lines well into the clothing racks. But it’s Walmart! I’ve come to expect that. I’ll never understand why they bother to build 20 check stands and only ever open a max of 3 but that’s just one of life’s unsolved mysteries.
What I love about this place is the people who work there– some of them are just a breath of fresh air! I am accustomed to Walmart employees who have the «this is not my department» attitude so the level of courtesy at this store amazes me. I go in often enough that I am pretty known to a few regular employees who work late night or early morning and I love being greeted with a smile and engaged in conversation, it’s like visiting neighbors! The greeter during the week is always a friendly face and the cashier, Caleb, is a doll! There’s a manager who works mornings I think his name is Ken, he always goes out of his way for me, instead of saying the fitting room isn’t open yet he will actually crawl on the floor underneath the door to let me into one. What a champ! There’s one older cashier who loves to talk up a storm but I honestly try and avoid her because she will make a simple 2 minute check out take 10 as she tells you what she likes and doesn’t like from your entire cart. Granted there a few people there who just go through the motions and get the job done but I’ve yet to want to bring my ghetto out on one of the employees here like I have needed to do routinely in other walmart locations.
I recently used their site to store option after black friday shopping online (I would NEVER do it in store.) and since 2 of my favorite people were working that department it was a good experience however for other customers it probably wouldn’t have been since it took about 15 – 20 minutes for them to find my items despite the tracking number, order number and the text I got saying they had arrived days ago. The hours the site to store email and website says are also wrong! They are open from 8am-​9pm not 10am-​10pm. Of course I came in at 9:40pm but the employees who knew me took the time to find my items even though it was after hours and no one was working that department– I’m doubtful they do that for everybody since the first girl who I asked was quick to tell me I would need to return tomorrow.
Prices are what you expect from walmart. I never bother trying to ad match I still think that’s stupid– if your computer knows its cheaper somewhere else why not just charge that instead of making me challenge you? I feel like its a game of «Bull shit». So there are still some grocery items I rather get up the street at Winco… Yes I cheat with Winco every now & then but my heart still belongs to Wally.
Night time stocking I will NEVER understand. They changed from being open 24 hours to close at 1am… why then do you need to fill the aisles with boxes and crates and pallets starting at 9? Has no one ever tripped or been bumped into here??? I see a lawsuit in the near future for Walmart. Speaking of stocking… this Walmart seems to have select days where they get shipments and you can find everything you need… come back a week later and it looks like they got robbed. Empty shelves, crunched up cans, dented boxes– especially in the grocery department. The produce dept in the worst culprit. I don’t think that dept managers knows how to do inventory on things that go bad in a week– you should have a new shipment once or twice a week! I watched a kid stock salad in a bag with the new inventory in FRONT of the old supply that had a use by date of tomorrow. These are the cons that keep me from giving this Walmart 5 stars.

Went to the pharmacy at 1:30 PM. The middle of the day. They tell me they are closing until «maybe 2:10 ish.» This is probably so they can all take lunch? A business like this should not ever be closed during their 9 – 9 hours. Have one person take a lunch while the other works and switch. I shouldn’t have to drive all the way out here to get my prescriptions and be turned away in the middle of the day. Ridiculous.

Not that expect too much from places but wow has Customer Service gone down! Yesterday there was a power outage which meant they had to close this store temporarily which is fine, however this morning they were open. So after about 20 minutes there some guy, who didn’t address himself or title, yelled from over 50 feet away at me that «(they) are having register issues from yesterdays outage and everyone needs to get out» Yes, just get out. What ever happened to «Hi Ma’am, my name is _​_​_​_​, I’m the _​_​_​_​here at Walmart, its appears we are still having difficulties from yesterday’s outage and are asking all customers to return at a later time, we apologize for the inconvenience»? Don’t know who that guy was or how he got that job but someone needs some advance training.

Drove all the way out here for a car battery. Called ahead of time to try and find out if it was in stock before I headed out. I was put on hold for 20 minutes and no one ever came back on the line to help me.
So I show up at the store and after walking to the farthest corner of the store to pick up the battery they do not have it. I tried to find a worker for almost 20 minutes who could answer my questions and it seemed nooone cared or wanted to help me out. Also the warranty on their batteries is garbage and the product they sell is garbage so I am very grateful that they did not have the battery in stock.
I will never shop here again. Rude unattentive sales people, Nasty customers, and an overall «Trailer Park Trash» feel to the whole experience will cause me to never return to this or any other Walmart. Now I get why they have their own crime rates, and why people hate them so much. Corporate is a bad thing people.
A very bad thing!

Huge store, pretty decent prices, not enough checkers. I’ve been a couple of times, and tried the 20 or less line. People please read the sign, a cart full of items is not 20. And I think the put the slowest checker in that lane too. If I have something specific, and I did, then I’ll make the trip out, otherwise, I’m not close enough to put up with the hassle factor.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Walmart in the past. We moved to Forest Grove over a year ago and this Walmart is the worst one I have ever been to.
Start out by walking in the door. There is a large screen there showing the time /​weather. The time is always off by 2 hours. All other Walmart stores that I have been to have this correct. (Yes, it’s a minor thing, but it just sets the stage. If they can’t get the clock right, what can they do right. Always makes me think of going to my parents house and the VCR always flashing 12:00.)
We have waited around for over an hour to pick up pictures that we uploaded from the website. Nobody was working the department and nobody knew anything. We saw the pictures in the machine, so finally we just grabbed the pictures, told someone what we did so we could pay and then walked out.
The lines at the cashier are always at least 5 people long. Normal wait in line is around 20 minutes.
I was going to get my fishing license so I went back to the sporting goods department. Nobody was there. (Big surprise.) There was a phone there labeled to use for help. I picked up the phone and they said that someone would be right there. I waited 20 minutes without anyone showing up. I called again and it just rang and rang. Kept calling over and over again. I finally just gave up after waiting for 45 minutes. On the way out the door, I passed an employee. I told her what had happened. She took me back and helped me out. This proves that there are good people here, just not enough of them. (This is also the reason I bumped my review to 2 stars)
I never shop here on a normal basis. Safeway and Freddy’s are just down the road. Yes, they are slightly more expensive, but even that isn’t the case as much these days. However, I just don’t want to spend all day at Walmart to buy groceries or whatever I need.
Overall, I still go to other Walmart stores when I travel and I have never seen one as bad as ours. If I was a district manager for the area, I would truly be embarrassed by this one.

What a disappointing trip. Long drive. Crazy parking lot. Noisy cart. Weird indoor lighting. Decent prices — nothing special. All of this only to find that they had no Sonicare toothbrushes in stock. I should’ve taken my Walmart giftcards to their less painful online store. Now I feel bad for cheating on WinCo and Target.

I have used this store for returns, shopping and site to store pick up and 90% of the time I have had issues with customer service. The employees in the service department generally have no sense of urgency, no customer service skills and care more about chatting with other employees than attending to customers.
I waited for over ten minutes to make a return. There were four employees trying to complete the return and only one woman explained the issue and appologized. I also watched while other customers were ignored while an employee worked on a side project. PLEASE TRAIN YOUR EMPLOYEES OR HIRE PEOPLE WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE.
The store seems pretty clean but is often under stocked.
Walmart can do better.

Walmart had been searching for a location in Washington County. After a successful campaign to keep them out of Cedar Mill, Walmart landed in the city of Cornelius. It was a very wise move on Walmart’s part. The city of Cornelius offers Walmart easy access off the main road and plenty of room to expand.
This Cornelius location is by far the handsomest Walmart I have ever seen. The interior is clean, well laid out, and bright. Among the offerings at the Cornelius Walmart are a pharmacy, a grocery, clothing, garden products, a vision center, and a Subway Restaurant.
Another great feature of the Cornelius Walmart is that the employee to customer ratio is much better than most Walmarts I’ve visited. Finding help on the sales floor was very easy. Each time I needed assistance I was treated very courteously and walked to the product I needed. There were more than enough cash registers going for the volume of business Walmart was doing.
Reports of the predatory nature of Walmart are usually exaggerated. Walmart is not perfect. I found quite a few items at Walmart that I could get elsewhere for cheaper. However, if I were Fred Meyer I think I would be kind of worried right now.

Love the store. I live here in Cornelius and the store is just a couple of miles a way. Oregon is a funny place. The Portland crowd love to complain about the store, yet say nothing about the Target and Fred Meyer stores that dot the landscape of our city and suburbs. Needless to say, Walmart has had a tough go finding locations, and so there are not many around. Now that we have a local store, we can save the 45 minute trek that we previously had to drive to the nearest store.
Inside the store itself, you’d find the usual Walmart wares. Those who don’t like the store will find they still do not, the rest of us whom enjoy lower prices for regular everyday stuff will be pleased to find that Walmart has most of what you will need.
The pharmacy is super helpful. I switched my entire family’s pharmaceutical needs from Walgreens to Walmart. They fill stuff fast, and they have a computer that will call you automatically when your refills are ready (just ask them to set it up for you).
On a final note, living just a couple miles away, I was a bit worried that floods, famine, locusts, and drought would wreak havoc upon our fair city, as our Portland friends predicted, but I’m happy to report that no such things have yet to occur.
