Pluspunten

the pay was very good, but since the assistant manager position is being eliminated to save money, i guess that means this is a con... raises were yearly and usually anywhere from .50 to $1.00. profit sharing was a great thing. they (at the time) were putting in $3 for ever $1 you put in.

Minpunten

upper management had no interest in the welfair of the employees. this went all the way up to corp. i know this because i once caught my store manager adjusting time cards of multiple employess (including myself) and the issue was swept under the rug and those that didnt know were never paid back. i called many "higher ups" to get it straightened out and was not taken seriously. so while walgreens will bend over backwards to accomodate the average customer, they will do nothing to ensure employees are treated with respect. another thing is just because benifits are here today, doesnt mean they will be tomorrow. when i started, assistants were allowed to get up to 4 hours of overtime every week. this was listed as one of the many benifits to taking the job. with our pay rate, that was about $100 a week extra on our paychecks. then they decided one day to take it away with no notice, which was $400 a month paycut...with no warning.

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.
