Pros

Sunday hours are sorter than most other retail pharmacies.

Cons

The vacation policy for pharmacists is a joke. You need to put in your entire year's worth of vacation you would like to request off by the November of the previous year. There is only one pharmacy scheduler for the entire company! Needless to say there are always mistakes with vacations, despite having to put in your requests over a year in advance. The upper pharmacy management has totally lost touch with what it means to work as a pharmacist in a retail setting. It seems as though the company is growing too quickly and doesn't seem to be able to keep up. Everything usually feels like a "scramble" to get things done on a management level.

Pros

-Easiest retail management you can hold. -Very good work life balance if you run your business well. -Pay is good for effort required

Cons

-Senior leadership of operations is Wal-Mart -Field leadership tries to do the right thing, but nothing is progressed because of senior leadership. -Do not come to the company with ideas. Come work for this company if you like doing what you’re told with no independent thought.
