The bonuses value would touch a figure of $1.06 billion of they include the funds which are paid to their managers. The company has more than 1.3 million employees in the United States.

Chris Kofinis, spokesman for WakeUpWalMart.com had this to say about the announcement: “Wal-Mart needs to understand that it needs to pay a living wage and not play games with workers that don’t improve lives.”
