Pros

The pay is pretty good for mgt,and the bennies are ok as well.The best things about working here are the profit sharing for retirement (matches at $3-$1) and the 7,000+ stores allow you to live anywhere in the country.

Cons

Long hours like most of retail,and the continued cutting of help.How do you run a successful store when you have very little help to do so.Like any company the almighty $ is the most important thing,why do you think they are open on All holidays?

Pros

Walgreens is a decent place to work and offers advancement in career opportunities if you are willing to put your best out there. Most people I have worked with are easy to get along with and I have made several friends in working at different stores in my career with the company.

Cons

There are times when you will have to work a late night/early morning shift, but then that will probably go along where ever you work; though it has happened more so at Walgreens than at any other place I have worked. I have been in the same position for almost 4 years, have been interviewed for a management position, and feel that I know as much or more than the management in my store; instead I am in this position where I am just me. I go to work everyday trying to support my family on a photo technician salary.

Pros

Co-workers are nice. The company helps you when it comes to learning they pay for classes and try to train they're employees

Cons

If you do a good job management stops you from a promotion not to hurt themselves, the store or their bonus
