Walgreens reviews

Inadequate training; threw me on the floor instead of having me complete online training; had to finish all of my training over 10 months after I had started. Made me work 40 hours a week for my first 3 or 4 weeks on top of having another job and 17 credit hours. Inadequate staffing; one worker is expected to do the job of multiple people for one lousy wage. At least consider offering bonuses in situations like this if you want to keep employees. The store needs to be closed if there is only one CSA and one manager (or even if there is just one manager) or start seeking other employees to step in. No ifs, ands, or buts. Don't expect the store to be immaculate in this case either. Good workers are punished while bad ones are rewarded. Unfair promotions; didn't receive a promotion after working there for almost a year while someone that had been there for 3 months was promoted. Lack of accommodation to college students' schedules or requests for days off. Sexual harassment isn't taken seriously; basically forced employees to quit instead of firing them. Lack of communication with asset protections. Was stalked and harassed by a customer at work for 3 days and management did nothing. Never closes, even if there is 5 feet of snow, a tornado touches down, or power goes out. If you get stuck going to work, you better start keeping de-icer and a shovel to clean up snow and ice patches along the way. Have to constantly annoy customers with donations to x, y, and z organizations and if you don't get any donations, that's how they apparently determine your worth as an employee. Even if you come in when you're not scheduled, never called in, and are a good worker.

I don't know if this true of all locations. But after you're hired you're informed of the following additional task: Cosmetics Dept is responsible for cleaning the restroom, including the toilet bowels: Photo Dept. is responsible for bringing in the garbage from the parking lots, and mopping the floors, Front register has to vacuum the front of the store.
