      Hello! Worked in their chicago office in 2019. LOVED how laid back it was, at the time you got to choose 2 days a week to work remote. I'm sure they're probably fully remote with the pandemic, but I feel like that was pretty rare pre-pandemic. Jeans everyday, they had nice office spaces, kitchen areas, and it was right next to the red line. I was in a contract position for only a few months before I was leaving the city, so I probably can't answer too many questions about the actual corporate experience other than the culture I saw while I was there.

        I'd rank them from better to worse Walmart-Walgreens-CVS. The volume and stress level do depend on the location but the CVS pharmacists seem to be always stressed and aggressive, completing some of their work during the 30 minute lunch break . Walmart likes to pay less and hires a lot of foreign pharmacy school graduates eager to get their first job in the US.

      Project Coordinator

      I recently had an interview with a hiring manager. The conversation went well in my opinion and they ended it by saying they would “like to schedule a day for me to meet their team and get a feel for the projects they’re working on and then have the conversation about what I’m looking for as far as compensation.” I’m not sure what to expect from this, a part of me feels like this means they might want me for the role, but the process is a little unorthodox from my experience. Any thoughts?
