Pluspunten

Excellent co-workers in mid-management; outstanding leaders in top management of the company who have--within the past year--embraced the value of bringing in outside leaders from companies other than the pharmacy field/market space.

Minpunten

My manager "conned" two others and me (I found out 6 months after accepting the position) by stating, "Wow . . . with your experience and background, you should be hired in at the director level. We are currently undergoing reviews of salary and position responsibilities. So, if you came in at a Senior Manager level, we may very well be upgrading the position to a director level within a few weeks. So would this interest you?" The upgrade never happened; and, further, in checking with others in the department, they have remained at their same level for over 5 years even after delivering stellar work products and team leadership. There are no bonuses; and, working 50 - 60+ hours per week is the norm for managers.

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.
