Pros

Co workers make it a fun environment

Cons

Do not pay employees very well, you only get a raise once a year and youre lucky if you get 40¢. I worked for several different stores and every store I worked at the store managers sit in the office all day instead of doing things around the store then get upset when asm's and shift leads don't get every single thing done. Almost every manager treats their employees like the don't have a life outside of Walgreens and are unsympathetic to any life tragedies. Just an all around awful employer to work for.

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.
