Pros

Walgreens cares about their employees and pays every employee well. Raises are given once a year to everyone, regardless of how sales were. If other stores are short on available employees, they may ask other stores if their employees are interested in gaining more hours. There is room to move around and for advancement within stores and corporate. Benefits are available after working with the company for 6 months. Everyone working at Walgreens treats one another with respect.

Cons

A variety of customers come into Walgreens every day. Some can be very creepy and stalker-like towards certain employees. There are also some customers who come in angry and will also leave angry and take it out on the employees. Kiosks in the photo department shut down periodically, causing less customers coming in to order digital prints.

Pros

Great if you have a family because the work doesn't follow you home unless you voluntarily take it with you. Opportunity to move around internally is high. Knowledge of the existing system is highly valued.

Cons

Low adherence to standard IT best practices. Efficiencies and not realized with department specialization. Compensation is not competitive with the market.
