Pros

Great opportunity to spend time with coworkers that develop into a family. Really fun atmosphere, very relaxed and warm. Your hand-eye coordination will get busy, and you will get better at resolving conflicts--with customers and coworkers. You definitely build tolerance.

Cons

Very difficult work--my knees and back were always hurting. The pay wasn't very good, and it's hard for your feedback to turn into a new procedure, even if it makes sense for your store, since it's an international brand with international procedures and standards.

Pros

In-store managers good depending on location, pay reasonable for a part-time job

Cons

Corporate staff hands down orders from their ivory tower without any knowledge of how it will affect individual stores. District managers and their supervisors are only concerned about padding the bottom line in their districts or regions to inflate their bonuses. All Walgreens' policies seem to be aimed at screwing store employees.

Pros

The system is real easy to use. Coworkers were people you could really get along with. The job itself is not that difficult.

Cons

As with any job that deals with the public, there are days that are more stressful that others. No loyalty.
