Pros

My job is flexible. As long as you follow policy and procedures your employment here should be smooth sailing. I enjoy my job. There is always room for advancement. I started out as a data entry technician. Worked that position until August of 2022 and got offered to do that position at home. I didn't like the isolation of the wah position so I interviewed for the Function Lead position and got it. I've been in this position since March now and couldn't be happier.

Cons

At the moment I don't have anything negative to say about my position.

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.
