Walgreens Operations Analyst reviews

* Made me pay for packaging to return my laptop ($27 per laptop w/ approved courier Fedex) * Underpaid considering market value and contribution to the company and given minimal merit bonus each year (0-4%) * Bonus didn't pay out for 2 years due to company's crappy performance. They paid out 1 of those years but used a different name with conditional terms that you stay until the end of they new fiscal year (bonus is for the prior year so this was not a bonus) * Great company for stagnation and lack of growth opportunities. Likely your great ideas will be shot down when you pitch them just to be picked up by leadership in the future and handed to someone else for completing and taking credit * Difficult to contact HR upon departure from company; I needed f/u on underpayment of frozen PTO and it was a painful multi-week process * "FTO" but leadership tells you to use the PTO accrual equation to determine how much max time you should take yearly * Antiquated technology and processes * Health insurance is slightly more than average expensive * Company shut down all opportunity for internal remote candidates to move around/up in the company, making all roles hybrid or in person. I saw several roles sit vacant because of this policy when internal people were interested and qualified. * Some title promotions were made without the qualifications or demonstrated responsibilities typically required, which diluted the role’s value for peers who had already been performing at that level. * 4 changes in direct management over 5 years, tons of restructuring, and major layoffs at least 4 of those 5 years which included teams around me in corporate not just pharmacy and store level staff

Little work life balance. No recognition. No employee engagement. No room for growth. You're just a number. Vacation after 11 years is equivalent to what you would get starting with a different company. Horrible managers. No career development. Horrible new hire training.
