Pros

They pay a very good salary. the hours are not bad for a retail setting. overall, a pretty good company to work for in the retail pharmacy business. the computer system is very good and easy to work with.

Cons

The pharmacy is usually very busy and doesn't allow you sufficient time to counsel patients. the job can be very stressful at times, especially dealing with insurance companies and some difficult companies. I do not like having a drive thru, it can be very annoying. the pharmacy doesn't have sufficient tech help, things would run much smoother with better tech help for the pharmacist.

Pros

I worked as a Business Management Intern. It paid well and working at my local store allowed me to take summer classes while working. You get great exposure to a potential career in retail management. There are lots of projects for interns to work on and complete and they are very flexible about which ones you choose. So if you are interested in Marketing you can do marketing projects. Interns generally don't have to work weekends.

Cons

They try to use the intern program to get you to become an assistant manager. Which isn't actually a bad career path for many people if you are cut out for it. Assistant managers work hard and tough hours but are paid well and have a very rapid potential for advancement.
