Pros

Great Staff and cleanliness, computer system

Cons

Retail, of course. CVS dropped TriCare and Texas Blue Cross, therefore a rush of CVS former patients swarm to Walgreens, yet Walgreens corporate refuses to give more hours to the staff.. resulting in more stress about the workplace and angry patients.

Pros

Pay is good, benefits are good as well. Corporate Campus is easy to get to and the facilities are decent.

Cons

Culture is poor. Mediocrity is the norm. You won't find anyone who'd you want to learn/mentor with. The culture would be the complete opposite of Amazon if you are familiar with their culture. All aspects from technology to culture to management style is 10 years behind other Fortune 500 companies. I would not come here if you're looking to challenge yourself or learn the industry. Being the largest Pharmacy Retailer in the world it would be a good stepping stone should you want to get a large company on your resume. Promotions are almost non-existent unless you apply for a position in another department.

Pros

Lots of OT available to make extra money, but don't expect any recognition for your efforts!

Cons

Zero loyalty to their employees; company now trying to save money by cutting from their employees; doesn't matter how much you kill yourself working extra shifts (18 hour days going months without a day off) to save the schedulers backsides, if you don't "suck up" to the right people, you're efforts go completely unnoticed at the corporate level
