Pluspunten

Not a better retail career, IMO. If you perform well, you'll be rewarded w/ pay/advancement. I've passed people who've been w/ the company longer just w/ work ethic and an ability to understand the business. No company is growing as rapidly as it was a year ago, and Walgreens is the same. To think that there'd be a better career opportunity would be short-sighted.

Minpunten

Same as w/ any retail career. If you're salaried, they own you. Don't plan vacations around holidays. SM's get holidays off, but have to work all around them. Also, you'll do alot of baby-sitting (often for people older than you). As should be expected, the hourly people don't always have the same level of dedication as you do, and you have to motivate them to get the job done.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
