Pros

One of the best reasons to work at Walgreens is the fact you can relocate to anywhere in the United States without any issues.

Cons

The downside of working at Walgreens is that upper manager doesn't care anything about store level workers. Another downside of Walgreens is the fact that they are open on holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas.

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.
