Abstract
The article presents a case study on the alleged persistence of sex employment discrimination in the corporate culture of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., a company known for its commitment to efficiency and cost control. It says that the discriminatory behavior in Wal-Mart implies the failure of the retail market to regulate and rectify corporate practices. It explores the factors of Wal-Mart's assumed discriminatory practices including limited employee leverage, competition, and consumer pressure.
