The article you referenced said they only looked at companies with headquarters in Illinois. Do you have any information about how many employees Walmart has in Illinois? Don't know if that would put them in the top 10 employers, but it would help us understand what impact they have on the economy in Illinois. Walmart is a predator company which costs taxpayers in every state millions because their employees are underpaid and they have strict rules that limit who receives company sponsored insurance.
