Pluspunten

The company offers great benefits if you're a full-time employee. You get profit sharing and stock options which is great! The employees are for the most part adolescents and great to get along with. You also make aquaintances with customers since you tend to get a lot of "regulars." The environment is pretty fast paced since there's always something to do so the shifts tend to fly by! You never have the same day twice!

Minpunten

As an assistant manager, you don't get formal lunches or breaks! You can work 10hr days and not once sit down during your entire shift. Scheduling isn't great there's times you've gotta work 11days straight! The workload is pretty overwhelming especially since you're expected to do the work of two people without extra help half the time! When it comes to training don't count on any! You will literally get trained by an employee for one day and then you're on your own to deal with the demanding customers that expect you to solve all their lives problems!

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.
