Pros

Good pay! I found that it was a great starting job just out of college. Excellent profit share ($2 to every $1 match for the first two percent taken out).

Cons

The Walgreens market is getting smaller which means the chance to move up in the company is becoming impossible. As a manager, you will never be off for a holiday, including Christmas Day, and if you are located in a 24 hour store this stands true more so. 24 hour stores and pharmacies are open 24 / 7 / 365. When I first started, my yearly salary quote was based on 4 hours of over time each week, however, when Walgreens started downsizing, they cut Assistant's overtime since we are paid on an hourly rate. This lead to around a $4000 cut in pay each year. Also, Management Trainee means learn evrything yourself and hope for the best (every store I have worked at so far).

System is idiot proof, there is low chance of errors. Dyas went quick, I had a fixed two week schedule.

Cons

No time for patients, Came in every day and checked 250 - 300 scripts and then go home... It was boring.
