Wal-Mart Rehabilitates Its Image
BENTONVILLE, ARKANSAS, USA - MARCH 17: (EUROPE OUT) A view of Wal-Mart corporate headquarters on March 17, 2005 in Bentonville, Arkansas. The biggest corporation in the world, stands in sharp contrast with the hi-tech headquarters of most corporations today, reflecting the values and philosophy of founder Sam Walton. Based in the small town of Bentonville, Arkansas (pop. 19,730), with 1,5 million employees and earnings of 285 billions last year, Wal-Mart has grown into the biggest corporation in the world since Sam Walton opened his first store in nearby Rogers, Arkansas, in 1962. Today Wal-Mart operates 3,700 stores in the U.S. and 1,607 abroad. The fiercely anti-union and media-shy company has recently become the target of critics regarding the treatment of its employees and the effects of its large and inexpensive stores on small local businesses. Wal-Mart is currently waging a battle to rehabilitate its image. (Photos by Gilles Mingasson/Getty Images)
