Pros

8 hour work days for pharmacist (but have heard they are getting rid of that)

Cons

Everything. Horrible corporate management, No support, understaffed pharmacies and stores which basically means you wont have time to pee. You can ask for a random day off 8 months in advance and most likely get denied even when floaters are available. Nevermind calling out sick- ive seen pharmacists with food poisoning throwing up in the back of the pharmacy inbetween customer bc either there is no one to call or they wont send anyone in. Will look for any reason to write you up, deny a raise, or just flat ojt fire you. No advancement opportunities. Once you get a store its damn near impossible go leave as a pharmacist.

Pros

Work with your schedule if you are in school.

Cons

Low pay. I need to be able to multitask, run the cash register, and operate the Photo Booth lab at a fast pace.

Pros

pay was decent I guess

Cons

no promotions, no good management, a lot of people in positions that do absolutely nothing, very cliquey, constant checking in 1:1's, no growth in your career, favoritism, toxic environment.
