      Pros

      At my Walgreens management acknowledges & respects the useful idea's of their employees. For the most part everyone works together for the greater good of making the store successful, no one likes a poor work environment. And it's up to the store manager to keep the beat of the store humming right along. Management does it best to accommodate requests for day's off.

      Cons

      With economy being what it is, pay is always the first to go, weather in a raise or overtime. It's never a fair situation for anyone. Retail will never have the best work schedules nights, weekends or when someone can't work their shift, puts pressure on the rest of us, as well as dealing with customers, face it the public can rude, selfish & inconsiderate at times

      Pros

      Can be a fun environment. All in whom your staff is. Operating photo was fun and building projects for the customers. Learning about pharmacy operations.

      Cons

      Work life balance and low pay for what is expected. Not having enough payroll to effectively run a store. My store ran FE on a 320 hour a week budget. That was barely enough to get buy and meet the expectations put out by the company. I was never able to keep a full leadership staff. When a leader called out, I had to stay. There were days I was called away from my own dinner table. SM's were forced to be in the pharmacy for more than half of their day regardless as to what is happening in the FE. I worked over 50 hours a week and barely got to spend time with my family. If I wasn't at the store I was getting a phone call and having to go back to the store.
