Pros

High starting salary compared to competitors.

Cons

-No raises the last 2 years for pharmacists. Found out 2 weeks before we got our performance reviews. -Promised bonuses based on metrics for managers was cut in half, 2 weeks notice. -Workload is high and increasing, labor budgets are low and decreasing. -Work life balance is poor, expect to stay hours late just to get the job done. -If in a pharmacy manager role, no options to step down if the job is too much.

Pros

The management is accommodating and doesn't ask of to much.

Cons

At one point the heat was out during the winter, but i'll say that this was only for about a week.

Pros

I love my team so much and we have some regular patients that are amazing.

Cons

Well I'm supposed to be full time but the last few weeks in feeling barely 30 hours a week. We have staff and no hours, customers are hateful. We're exhausted.
