Pros

Other Pharmacists very supportive. Work together... Decent profit sharing and 401k, national company so opportunities to move/transfer.

Cons

Restructuring made it possible for non-pharmacists to be the district managers, aka- the direct bosses of pharmacists. They have never worked in a pharmacy full time, therefore dont understand the workflow, and the importance of some issues over others. Harder for them to empathize metrics when they dont realize how well, or poorly, they fit into the operations of the pharmacy. They also cut pharmacist hours accross the board, limiting overlap in busy stores, putting more pressure on the staff to perform, while maintaining high standards of customer care.

Pros

Coworkers are amazing, okay benefits, decent employee discounts when you know about all of them.

Cons

Hours being cut. Raises are not based on performance. Software updates cause constant crashes. Hard to get time off even when requests were put in months in advance. Short staffed. drive thru speakers are terrible. Too many things being tracked so patients get annoyed by 20 questions.
