Pluspunten

The salary was good for a retail position

Minpunten

Long hours, expensive benefits, no work life balance, unrealistic job preview, micromanagement in most stores I was at, everything run by corporate even if it won't work in the store you're in. I worked 50+ hours a week and during the holidays we were required to work 6 days a week and usually 60+ hours. If you had to leave early to pick up your sick kid or you had an appointment, you had to make up your time even though you already had put in 50 hours. Upon hire, they told me that Wagreens is expanding rapidly and that I will have my own store within 2 years. That never happened. It's all about favorites there.

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.
