Walgreens reviews

The company regularly adds more responsibilities to your job description while also taking away benefits. New hires get paid more than employees that have been here for decades. The expectation for how many people get staffed at a time is also too little. Scheduler is not given enough hours to schedule two shift leads at a time meaning the shift lead on duty doesn't get their mandatory 30 minute break.

Corporate has a budget limit and that leaves a low number of pharmacy technicians and thus trying to fill hundreds to thousands of prescriptions for patients within the same day or next day is a daunting task. Due to this pharmacy falls behind on prescriptions due and this leads to very angry patients. Thankfully right when I left they had robots rake over filling majority of prescriptions. So more prescriptions get done on time and this means less angry patients Main cons are the amount of prescriptions to get done in a short time, lack of workers to get it done due to limited budget for the store, and the angry patients wanting their drugs.
