Some associates will see their pay drop, as a result. But not all associates' wages will change.
"There will be a a mix, depending on the new roles," the spokeswoman said. "Some will see higher pay, some might see a slight decrease."
Instead of having workers in each store manage paperwork, those duties will be automated or shifted to the company's home office in Bentonville, Arkansas.
