Walgreens reviews

The down side of Walgreens is working crazy hours -days, nights, weekends and holidays. Working under staffed. Always having to do extra work when company "big wigs" are in town (which is often) because of fear of loosing your job. You have to play the game. When VP's visit the stores they say they want to see how the stores operate on a normal day to day basis. But, what they actualy see is the "visitor" presentation of the store. Everyone knows this but you have to play the game. I guess it works in a way because those managers that can't get the "visitor" presentation pulled together don't last with the company.

Downside is the schedule but they provide you with a good salary and benefits. The other big issue is the number of prescriptions you must fill each day at the higher volume stores. They have devised a way to help this super busy pharmacist out through the computer where another less busy pharmacist anywhere in the state can verify prescriptions at the other more busy store.
