Pros
Employee's get a 20% discount, which is really nice since Rite Aid has the best drug store rewards program.
Cons
I'm a part-time worker and if I don't work at least an hour during a 28 day period, I'm kicked out of the system. For college students, study abroad is a huge problem. Rite Aid is so focused on savings that hours are constantly cut. Rite Aid is so incredibly cheap. You are required to take a 30 minute unpaid lunch so all "full-time" employees actually work 37.5 hours a week. Rite Aid is also a revolving door, the front end can hardly keep a manager or employees for longer than 6 months. Rite Aid pays the lowest per hour rate/salary for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians.
