Walgreens reviews

- Terrible culture - in my first two weeks, two people independently came up to me and advised me that this is the worst company to work for and they'd be surprised if I lasted a year before quitting. I should have believed them. - Low pay - hasn't kept up with any sort of inflation and merit increases are not based on performance. - Top Heavy structure - way too many Directors/ Sr. Directors squabbling over fiefdoms creating meaningless work for everyone else and taking home the majority of the comp. First step management should do is streamline the whole corp leadership by having a few really good people responsible for much wider areas. - Poor benefits - Company given laptop/equipment is laughably bad. They tried to give me an obviously used and not cleaned headset when I started. These cost like $20 - the fact that they're trying to save money by re-using these is indicative of a lot of other issues the company faces.

Personal life will take a toll from your exhaustion. You work with people who thrive at the idea of being a slave to a company that doesn’t care about its employees, if you don’t jump at the chance to work overtime extra hours and on your days off you are looked down upon as lazy even if you are a hard worker who puts in their 40 hours each week. Understaffed every day even on holidays corporate doesn’t give the budget hours it needs but still expects the work to somehow get done. Expectations for what can get done in a single day is unreal and completely unrealistic for CSAs, pharmacy and shift leads. The DH position is a joke it should just be labeled as promotion to slavery for Walgreens Co. Customers are rude and don’t care about the things corporate seems to believe they do, ie slogans and donations, etc. The pay will never be worth the work or sweat you put in. I’m down 15lbs working here for 7 months! Toxic work environment! No pros!
