Pros

Flexibility! When in high school and community college, Walgreens gave me an extremely flexible schedule around classes and homework. However, expect to work your fair share of nights, weekends, and holidays.

Cons

Not a lot of growth opportunity. In-store management positions are often not available at the same store you started in, so expect to move to several different stores as you move up the chain.

Pros

In some instances there are opportunities for growth - "FOR SOME". As an employee of Walgreen Company I take pride in everything I do and I consider myself to be a loyal employee. However, I cannot say in all honesty that I feel appreciated. I feel expendable and unimportant irregardless of the loyalties that I've shown. I guess my best reason for working for Walgreen Company is the FACT that I need the extra income to supplement my first source of income. I am a single mom and struggling, I spend a lot of time away from my children at Walgreens. It would help to feel as if I AM VALUED.

Cons

Feeling unappreciated. Struggling for increases. When increases do come they are VERY minimal.
