Pros

They have entry level management positions, giving a chance for people without a lot of experience a chance to get their foot in the door. And Convenience - there are many locations all over the U.S. so if you were to ever relocate, you will most likely be able to transfer.

Cons

It's retail, so employees are most likely required to work on weekends, holidays, and nights; usually all three.

Pros

If you're looking for a company with a future then I believe Walgreens is the place to work. When you see the evening news all you hear about is one company after another downsizing. Walgreens has been consistantly growing and I believe will continue to. I worked for them for a long time and I always feel I was treated fairly and with respect. The Walgreen management ethics statment is dead on as to how employees and customers should always be treated. There is always room for improvement but after working for several large corporations prior to joining Walgreens I have to honestly say they were by far the best of the bunch.

Cons

You don't always get feedback on your performance.

Pros

The opportunities for advancement within Walgreen is good. Because of the tremendous growth there are always new positions opening up for those who are intelligent and have drive. The pay and benefits are also decent and I have few complaints there.

Cons

Upper management runs us in circles with initiatives that seldom pan out. I feel like I am overworked and underappreciated. If the company would work more into giving me positive feedback and constructive feedback. I am tired of the position after five years and am counting down the time till I leave. Mostly I feel underappreciated.
