      Pros

      Decent pay, good benefits and room to move up if you can take the long hours and some bad store locations.

      Cons

      Long hours, not enough hours between shifts, alot of manual labor, unloading trucks, stocking shelves while dealing with angry customers.

      Pros

      pay is pretty good, sometimes you get a good store manager

      Cons

      nothing is guaranteed, no job security, hours are anytime they feel like, no life for most employees, the changes to SIMC duties don't even pass the Walgreens own 4-way test. .

      Pros

      Up until recently, there haven't been any clear Job Descriptions or Roles and Responsibilities. This really gave people with initiative an opportunity to create the career/job they wanted. As long as you act like you know what you're doing, most people won't know the difference and leave you alone. As long as it appears you are contributing to the bottom-line somehow, you could make a whole career of this.

      Cons

      Senior managers are all over-worked. They have too many responsibilities and they become roadblocks for a significant amount of work at lower levels. Every manager is only concerned with "managing up" and employees are left to fend for themselves (this can be a pro if you're a individual with tons of initiative and a little bit of arrogance). Many managers got promoted because they were "next in line" or they were the "favorite". Most have no idea how to manage people and are only concerned with what their boss thinks is important.
