Pros

The pay is rather good for a retail business. There is a decent amount of advancement opportunities. Good 401k and benefits.

Cons

Budget cuts have really hurt a lot of people No overtime allowed for managers anymore. The expectations of what to get done are still the same though.

Pros

The compensation was fair. The work environment itself was for the most part cleanly and reasonable.

Cons

The hours of retail management are awful but you know that going into it. The company is so focused on the pharmacy and their staff that you begin to feel like you are just an extra. As a result of the size of the physical store itself you only have a few employees on each shift which means you end up doing a lot of the grunt work. There were days were I got paid just to be a 'stock boy.'
