Pros

I was a pretty easy job, and I was usually pretty busy.

Cons

It was very boring, I had to do the same task all day. If you like consistency and don't need to do a lot of different task to stay interested then this maybe a good job for you.

Pros

They have good pay and benefits.

Cons

Many employees are disgruntle with their work. Upper management takes a one-sided opinion of employees based on what they hear first. Gossip spreads around Walgreens similar to High School drama.

Pros

Opportunity to work like a slave in a box without windows. Low salary for work load and responsibility. Multiple exposures to airborn and contact pathogens in a room with no air flow what so ever. Rediculous money spent on promotions no one uses or cares about. Sponsorships of $5000 to 300 little league teams instead of raises or increased staffing...Good Job!

Cons

Began with Take Care before it was sold to Walgreens. Started with production bonuses up to $5000 in 2007, 20% employee discounts, promises of matching 401K, PTO based on 40 hour work week. By 2008 all these perks and promises were gone. Gone also were the Medical Assistants to help us get our "20 min" exams done. So essentially you get to bust your buns for 12 hours without even a potty break. Every promise was broken.
