Pros

very laid back in the work place this is not eactly the idea i had when coming to walgreens and i was very surprised to find out that the more you wanted to be in a position to advance in the store the more your hours were cut. This may not be a big deal for a person who has no desire to advance.

Cons

The pay was very low. This was not exactly the idea when I came into the job and I left with the feeling that I had been suckered.

Pros

Walgreens has been a great place ot work, they have been very flexible around my college schedule. They offer a nice benefits package and usually treat employees fairly. Lots of room for vertical movement.

Cons

I feel I am never recognized for good performance. Suggestive selling just annoys customers. Anything that can put doubt in a customer's mind about coming back should not be part of a successful retail company.

Pros

It's a company willing to hire graduates straight out of an undergraduate program. It will allow you to gain experience you can transfer to another position.

Cons

You will have to be able to handle employees who really don't want to be there at all. That is tough.
