Pros

-Easy Work for the most part -Options for positions. Don't like your typical retail front? Its relatively easy to transfer to the Pharmacy. -Flexable Schedule -Employee Discounts. (15% off for non-Walgreems items & 25% off for Walgreens Brand items)

Cons

-Constant pushing of items (Recipt surveys, Red Nose, etc) -Not the quickest lateral movement because of it being a smaller retailer. -Having to work holidays. My store you had to work 2 of the 3 big holidays. Thanksgiving, Christmas, & New Years. Not to mention you don't get ANY holidays off unless it falls on your off day or something like that
