Pros

Pharmacy computer software is great. Since there are Walmarts everywhere it is easy to transfer within the company. Medical and prescription insurance are easy to afford with salary. Usually security is not an issue since store always full of people. We can import prescriptions from other Walmarts thru the computer to make transferring prescriptions easier.

Cons

They try to micromanage the pharmacy. Each year you are expected to be more productive than the previous year with less help. Customers are frequently abusive to workers when prescriptions are not done fast enough. Walmart then rewards these rude people with gift cards. Some doctors and other pharmacies lack respect for Walmart since it is a retail chain with $4 prescriptions.

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
