Pros

Their computer system is designed for pharmacists - they spend a lot of money programming it to be smooth and effiecient. Adequately trained Senior Technicians can help out immensely. In the MN district you are allowed to implement initiatives of interest. Additionally, there are specialty pharmacies for HIV/AIDs, Compounding etc.

Cons

The script fill can be very high. At times it would be nice if store managers were willing to help more in the pharmacy considering the pharmacy is the main profit maker.

Pros

The management respects you as an individual, and not as a number. Full-time employees make almost all their hours. Profit sharing can make you some retirement money. Health benefits are on par with most employers.

Cons

The pay isn't all that great. Promotional monies for service clerks are small compared to those earned by photo specialists and beauty advisors. There isn't enough coverage in every department, especially cosmetics and the pharmacy.
