Pros

- Something different to do every day - Friendly co-workers (same level as me or "below" me) - We don't have to sit at a desk behind a computer all day long

Cons

- We work 52 hours a week but are only paid for 40 hours - District manager does not answer e-mails - No praise for a job well done - NO weekends off unless on vacation - Hard to even get 2 days off in a row - Raises are capped at 2% - This is not a fair wage for the job that we do - Many rude and "rough" customers to deal with, especially depending on the neighborhood. I have been spit on, a customer tried to punch me, and it can just be dangerous sometimes

Pros

Hard work and dedication to their product movement will assist you in moving into more responsibility. They offer excellent benefits or did when I was employed with them.

Cons

The balance of work and home life was very skewed when working in management. Expect long hours to be the norm and possibly to be on call 7 days a week.

Pros

Flexible schedule, fun staff, busy pharmacies (for the most part) so time goes by fast. Good insurance benefits for 20 hours week, good vacation time accrued.

Cons

Managers don't care. No one takes responsibility for their errors therefore all levels and abilities of workers get paid the same and have the same job security.
