      Pros

      I would only recommend working at walgreens if if you are absolutely desperate, or perhaps if you are a retiree looking for part-time work to keep you busy.

      Cons

      as with any retail job you are subject to dealing with occasionally irrate and generally rude customers. management pushes for excellent customer service yet has no regard for the well being of their employees. as a service clerk you will be expected to do a lot of mindless work at irregular shifts with long hours for minimum wage. do not expect to get promoted unless you become best friends with the store manager. also, if you get laid-off don't expect to recieve unmeployment benefits, walgreens will fight you tooth and nail over them.

      Pros

      Can be a fun environment. All in whom your staff is. Operating photo was fun and building projects for the customers. Learning about pharmacy operations.

      Cons

      Work life balance and low pay for what is expected. Not having enough payroll to effectively run a store. My store ran FE on a 320 hour a week budget. That was barely enough to get buy and meet the expectations put out by the company. I was never able to keep a full leadership staff. When a leader called out, I had to stay. There were days I was called away from my own dinner table. SM's were forced to be in the pharmacy for more than half of their day regardless as to what is happening in the FE. I worked over 50 hours a week and barely got to spend time with my family. If I wasn't at the store I was getting a phone call and having to go back to the store.
