Pros

The working environment at my department is fairly layback. It's great for new graduates, married people, especially ones with kids. The working hour is flexible. You can work from home if needed or push back the deadline. Most of people are nice and seem to have been working at Walgreens forever.

Cons

There is no clear career pace for analytical background people. It's very likely that you report to someone without technical/analytical knowledge. And he/she is not allowed you to have direct reporting. The base salary is Okay, but unlike working in other industries, there is no bonus for analysts at Walgreens.

Pros

Not a bad salary for little experience, benefits are good compared to competitors

Cons

More stock work than management, never had a weekend off in the two years I worked for them, rarely had two consecutive days off, store manager refused to let me have more than one day off while my wife was in the hospital in the ICU unit, sick days are nonexistent.

Pros

Walgreens has excellent benefits as far as healthcare and the 401K employer conribution. The compensation is comprable to other similar jobs.

Cons

Walgreens expects a lot from their employees. You are expected to do the work of 3 people and not get paid for that amount or quality of work.
