Pros

Decent PTO accrual IF you’re an employee for longer than a year

Cons

Where do I start? -Constantly understaffed, and Walgreens doesn’t pay well so you get people with little to no experience, or people that don’t care enough to work, so it’s a constant cycle of new techs in and out -Budget cuts -Unrealistic expectations as far as what all needs to be done on a daily basis -Corporate seems to think this is a sales job, constantly forcing employees to “sell” donations, surveys, vaccinations, etc and write ups if they catch you not doing this regularly -Verbal harassment from customers for things that are beyond your control -No raises for senior techs. They claim that raises are available, but I wasn’t certified when I was hired. All techs received a market raise, then there’s a $1 for becoming certified, then another $1 raise to become Sr. Tech. i took the PTCB and got the $1, however I was at 15.50 before my Sr. Tech promo so they claimed I had already hit max pay for techs, therefore all I got was additional responsibilities but no raise -No career growth unless you want to stay in retail

Pros

You learn quickly and are able to ownership of decisions from the start

Cons

HR isn't professional or honest when hiring you. Be careful when reviewing your offer letter and have everything that is being offered written in writing. The chances of others moving on and you do three roles instead of just yours is the normal everyday behavior here.
