Pros

Walgreens uses a very sophisticated pharmacy program called IntercomPlus. It is a centralized database with access to every walgreens pharmacy records and a lot of information on drugs. This allows us to work more efficiently and effectively.

Cons

Walgreens upper management is very demanding. They keep putting pressure on us to have higher customer satisfaction but management does very little to nothing to give us the tools we need.

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.
