See, e.g.,

In 2008, Walmart agreed to pay at least $352 million to settle lawsuits claiming that it forced employees to work off the clock. "Several lawyers described it as the largest settlement ever for lawsuits over wage violations."

Well, yes. And the whole "abuse the salaried manager exemption to avoid paying overtime for "managers" who don't really manage anything" strategy, too.

I get it. I just think that the working conditions at Walmart are not quite the working conditions for manicurists that the NYT article described. Every single nail salon that they looked at fucked their workers out of money. Every one. Even Walmart isn't that evil.
