      Pros

      Store manager has control of own schedule so work life balance is reasonable. Most customers and patients really do appreciate your work. Community outreach is fun and adds purpose to the job.

      Cons

      Net promoter score runs your life, but its an arbitrary result. Bonuses on 90 days adjusted prescription volume but company pissed away contracts so volume tanked in the New year. Company has no real plan to combat CVS' integrated business nor the threat from Amazon. Barbour European leaders could come up with is to reduce retail space by leading it to Fed ex/Sprint/lab Corp etc. In the mean time managers must run their stores like you'd expect a Dollar General, no help and lots of theft.

      Pros

      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.

      Cons

      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.
