Over all, was a good experience. Too, many changes from corporate. Profitable stores are either closing or losing hours - Shift Leader Walgreens Employee Review

Pros

Great customer service experience in all departments. Local management is friendly and willing to work with employees to improve. Almost like having a second family.

Cons

Loss of store employment hours and cutting operating hours. Profitable stores have been sabotaged to loss of profits and customer count. We no longer sponsor local vendors or carry products our customer base wanted and routinely purchased. Walgreens started as a small business over 100 years ago and is now rejecting local small businesses. Budget hours being cut have made a more stressful work load on the remaining team members and management. They would rather take the insurance for losses than of product and from robberies, than increase security not only for employees but also customers. The area is questionable at best and city police is lacking and can only do so much.

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.
