Walgreens reviews

Don't let the benefits fool you, they will work you so hard that you cannot use them. Every single second the store was open I was supposed to be available and ready to drop everything and keep my store open, whether it was a CSA or SFL. They required me to work Monday - Friday 7:30 to 5 and 6 days every other week. There was a point in my career I was so short staffed as a Pharmacy Operations Manager at a busy location, I ended up so stressed it put me in and out the hospital for 2 weeks. This was durning covid. I cannot believe I spent so much of my life, 10 years, dedicating my time to a company that doesn't care about their employees. There is NO help. Just slashing hours and lay offs. They dangle the bonus in front of you and then don't pay it out most of the time. The expectations are designed to be impossible. You can't even at here to the companies own policies because you are working with the bear minimum to keep the lights on. It's insanity. You have insane turnover because no one can get hours. New hires quit because they cannot be trained properly. I had to work 65+ a week 7 days straight for weeks sometimes because of staffing. Bad with and behind on technology needed to run the store. Employees and customers don't even get Wi-Fi. They give you ZERO operating budget. Don't be a store manager here. It's corporate slavery.

6 call ins a year, this is a very strict policy. Doesn’t sound bad until you get very sick and write you up for each day absent. 3 write ups and your gone, write up’s could be for nearly anything you do wrong. Theirs a policy for everything, I mean everything. Christmas bonus is in Walgreens cash. If you don’t offer to stay late, come in early or come in on your few days off you are seen as “non-loyal” by the company and they WILL bring it up in your reviews, And you will be deducted points for it.
