I am writing this review to express deep frustration with the repeated unprofessional and discriminatory behavior exhibited by an employee named Simon, who is stationed at the exit door to check receipts. This has not been a one-time incident, we’ve noticed a pattern of behavior that appears to be racially biased and extremely unprofessional.
Each time we exit the store, Simon stops us and scrutinizes our receipt in a way that is noticeably different from how he treats other customers. He consistently delays us, even though our purchases are in order. It seems he gives more attention or priority to customers based on their skin color, which is deeply offensive and unacceptable.
Additionally, Simon does not appear to have a clear understanding of how to properly check receipts. His lack of training and professionalism slows down the process and creates an uncomfortable, even humiliating, experience.
This kind of treatment is not reflective of the diverse and respectful community here in Round Rock, where people are more than capable of paying for their purchases. We expect better from a major retailer like Walmart.
We ask Walmart management to seriously address this issue, either through better training or disciplinary action. Customers should not feel targeted, judged, or disrespected when leaving your store. Other retailers like Target, HEB, Lowe’s, and Home Depot manage customer service and loss prevention far more professionally without making shoppers feel unwelcome.
Walmart, do better. Your community deserves respect, not profiling.
