Pluspunten
With Walgreens being a fast growing company with a new store opening every 20 hours, that means there are that many more store management oppurtunities available every day. From my perspective as an assistant store manager, the overall goal of all managers is to one day become a store manager. Once you reach this level of management you are set. Your job is easy, the hours are nice and the pay is great!
Minpunten
Retail is just not for everybody. At a store like Walgreens, where the hours are 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, the hours as an assistant manager are not very appealing. Very few jobs these days are 9-5, 40 hour a week jobs but as an assistan store manager I worked a very random, inconsistent schedule that will require overnight shifts and consistent night shifts and consistent weekends. From my experience, being a assistant manager at Walgreens can be very detrimental to a marriage or relationship. Almost every manager at my store was either divorced or going through serious problems with their spouse because of the lack of time spent together. Once you become a store manager, life is great, but the road to glory sucks!
