Pros

The work is fulfilling. The managers encourage you to grow and give you the tools to do just that. Management for the most part is supportive and helpful. Like all jobs in life, there are ups and downs, but you respect your job, work hard, be willing to learn and step out of your comfort zone you'll find the advantages are endless and the Pros will always out weigh the Cons.

Cons

Full - Time is 30+ hours, rarely will you see 40 especially if you work the 3:30p to close shift. You usually avg around 32-35 hrs a week.

Pros

As a pharmacy Inter (pharmacy student), I am paid higher than just techs and also are given more respect from the pharmacist than techs. As a student it is a great way to use a portion of my schooling and in regards to walgreens, from my own experience most retail are all the same.

Cons

As a intern, my role is still as a tech. This means i do a lot of running around trying to keep patients happy. Also, not all walgreens pharmacies are created equal. I have work in two stories and both were and are amazing. However, most other students say that their store is aweful. Also, if you can not handle patients either getting anger or yelling at you.... do no try to be a pharmacist or become an tech
