Pros

401k plan is great,thats about all

Cons

Upper mgmt has favorites, so they aren't fair with policies. Nobody appreciates your hard work. Your told to hold employees accountable, but your not allowed to discipline them because that would be harsh. Don't expect to have a balance between life and work because your life belongs to walgreens. Expect to work 6 days a week, minimum 12 hour days during dec. And dont expect to be compensated later. You have no time for family. Expect to not have enough staff in the store or rx and expect to do most work yourself
