The life as a assistant manager

Pros

You will learn a lot of skills such as managerial skills, safe keeping skills, customer service, ability to finish tasks fast and efficiently.

Cons

The work schedule consists of many nights and weekends especially if you are starting out with the company. Some of the customers want it their way, you deal with people who steal and sometimes don't make any sense at all. You deal with your employees frustrations and problems as well

Room for improvement

Pros

Walgreens has been a great place ot work, they have been very flexible around my college schedule. They offer a nice benefits package and usually treat employees fairly. Lots of room for vertical movement.

Cons

I feel I am never recognized for good performance. Suggestive selling just annoys customers. Anything that can put doubt in a customer's mind about coming back should not be part of a successful retail company.

Pros

Great Staff can get along great with fellow employees Employee Discount Working with certain pharmacists can be great. Willing to Work with School Schedule

Cons

Upper management doesn't have a clue, simply cuts hours not realizing that it's simply not going to work. Upper management doesn't care about you all they care about is numbers.
