Pros

Regular nice customers Some friendly co-workers Easy

Cons

Horrible pay Terrible hours Worst scheduling No care for customers Scammer Card Bad Management No communication You will work hard but don't expect to be acknowledged for it. The pharmacy is not bad but they are always having the hours cut back there. Nothing is important if you're not in a clique and that's important information you need to know. Teamwork is very rare or hardly ever heard of.

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.
