Pros

In some instances there are opportunities for growth - "FOR SOME". As an employee of Walgreen Company I take pride in everything I do and I consider myself to be a loyal employee. However, I cannot say in all honesty that I feel appreciated. I feel expendable and unimportant irregardless of the loyalties that I've shown. I guess my best reason for working for Walgreen Company is the FACT that I need the extra income to supplement my first source of income. I am a single mom and struggling, I spend a lot of time away from my children at Walgreens. It would help to feel as if I AM VALUED.

Cons

Feeling unappreciated. Struggling for increases. When increases do come they are VERY minimal.

Pros

Can be a fun environment. All in whom your staff is. Operating photo was fun and building projects for the customers. Learning about pharmacy operations.

Cons

Work life balance and low pay for what is expected. Not having enough payroll to effectively run a store. My store ran FE on a 320 hour a week budget. That was barely enough to get buy and meet the expectations put out by the company. I was never able to keep a full leadership staff. When a leader called out, I had to stay. There were days I was called away from my own dinner table. SM's were forced to be in the pharmacy for more than half of their day regardless as to what is happening in the FE. I worked over 50 hours a week and barely got to spend time with my family. If I wasn't at the store I was getting a phone call and having to go back to the store.
