I can’t stand Walgreens

Pros

Possibility for many hours. Customer service experience growth. Lots of walking around so you’ll stay in shape. You’ll learn how to fold

Cons

I was a beauty advisor and I know absolutely nothing about beauty or foundation shades but I was thrown there. I hated cleaning bathrooms and the break room every night. Not work the money for the way they work you like a dog.

Pros

I've worked with wonderful management that have allowed me the opportunity to move up in the store level, has granted me a flexible schedule to finish school (so as I can move on from this company), and frankly just understands how frustrating it is working for this pharmacy giant.

Cons

Corporate has no clue what goes on in the store level. I feel like they speak to us like we are children and they offer stupid, childish incentives (i.e. Pizza party for the store that gets the most flu shots...?) while they continue to cut hours, limit staffing, put on hiring freezes and cap pay. I worked in a busy pharmacy that was constantly shorthanded and overwhelmed while corporate was demanding higher numbers, more vaccines and nitpicking everything we didn't have time to accomplish. Walgreens has become a cheap company and a terrible place to work for.
