Pros

Pay is decent and hours are fair for retail. Was once a great company. Excellent district manager

Cons

Horrible since merger with Walgreens. They have taken away so many of our perks and niceties as if to punish us. Yet we are the ones fueling sales and making more $$ for WBA year over year. Work life balance does not exist. Pto is now a mere 5 days vacation and 3 sick days per year. Prior to merge w Walgreens it was 2 weeks per year. They have also eliminated our commission. Yet continue to assign us ridiculous sales goals. What’s our motivation to achieve these goals?? Gratis is few and far between. Even travel expense has taken a hit....the list goes on and on

Pros

Great co workers, gratis, some of the trainings were great . Day hours , in the beginning the commission was attainable .

Cons

Working in a target and they wouldn’t work with you no matter what you did . No health benefits , at the end sales goals were unattainable. Laid off instead of given a different option . I was very loyal and enjoyed my job but was let go after the Walgreens merger.
