Walgreens reviews

The hours are crappy, esp. when you have to work the late shift one day and come in early the next morning. Two days off in a row is a rarity. The job is very physically demanding at times (receiving and managing freight, doing resets). Long hours on your feet - lots and lots of walking. Endless task lists and busywork. Often incompetent store managers or EXAs. Little room to advance quickly any more. Promotions based on popularity versus ability. Skills not valued. Training is horrible from day one, and never gets better. You're basically on your own, and neglected.

I work in Chicago district 9, I've been with Walgreens for 12 year's and the way assistant manager's & employee's are being treated is insane we bust are ass and it is never enough no matter how hard we work to get work done all we here is criticism or get are butt's chewd out because we did not get 1 work task done, it is impossible to please store manager's who sit in the office all day and talk on the phone and on facebook on there cell phone , executive manager's most of them walk around the store & write note's and give there work to everyone else while they pretend to work in the stockroom, & district office just don't know what's going on in the store's.
