I was hired as the overnight manager but I am nothing but a glorified janitor, it's horrible! - Overnight Shift Lead (Manager) Walgreens Employee Review

Pros

Insurance, and from where I live, the salary

Cons

At my store, it's all about clicks and gossip. If I get a write up, everybody has seen it and read it before me. There's no privacy and absolutely no professionalism. My manager doesn't have the balls to talk to me in person, I just get these nasty notes that everyone reads. I've been there 7 months and I have yet to talk to him. Also, they expect me to work like a machine on my shift, and since I'm not in their click, nobody likes me so I'm the scapegoat. Am I back in high school?

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.
