Pros

The organization is really trying to move to the future and is taking great strides in "shaking up" the oraganzation. The people are friendly and have a passion for the organization. There is a willingness to help from everyone.

Cons

There is limited diversity at the Manager and above levels. I think this is in the process of changing. The technology used by staff is quite dated. There are some employees who are stuck in the old way of doing things which brings challenges to make necessary changes to advance the organization. It is a challenge to make a culture shift in any group so this is to be expected and it is hopeful they are moving in the right direction.

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.
