Pluspunten

Pre-Walgreens Acquisition: - Great environment where team and individual contributions meant something and made a difference - Tight purse strings, team-driven goals, and dedicated personnel lead to real innovation, creativity, and satisfaction as we achieved our goals together Post-Walgreens Acquisition: - We were told the acquisition was based on the talent and value of our team's deep intellect, creativity, and ecommerce expertise, thus we were excited about the increased support, resources, and recognition (this lasted for about a month)

Minpunten

Pre-Walgreens Acquisition: - Long hours and tight resources Post- Walgreens Acquisition: - Manipulative personalities from the supposed acquisition integration team poisoned the positive can-do attitudes of the people who remained and were not laid-off right away (talent acquisition? Really?) - Management from Chicago/Deerfield say one thing then do another and could not be trusted nor do they exhibit the insight, experience, support, dedication, and respect they claim to provide - Certain individuals have been allowed to lie, cheat, and steal with no repercussions, yet are empowered to adversely affect the employment status of others - What was once a scrappy, dedicated team of professionals driven to innovate, succeed, and deliver results has been reduced to a few worn out employees who fear for there jobs (lots of sub-standard work ethics and back-stabbing), don't trust Walgreens management, and watch the company they built be reduced to nothing, losing money hand-over-fist.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
