Walmart to close three tech hubs, relocate staff
Nearly all technology employees across the company would be expected to work in their offices for at least two days a week, added Robert Munroe, Walmart’s director of global communications. The big-box retailer would close offices that housed technology staff in Austin, Texas, in Carlsbad, California and in Portland, Oregon, Munroe said. The operations would move to hubs including one in San Bruno, California or the company’s headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas, he said, citing a memo sent last week by Walmart’s global technology head, Suresh Kumar.
