      Pros

      Good benefits including employee stock discount, profit sharing and store discounts. Room for advancement and support from management at different levels.

      Cons

      Exposure limited to Walgreens business issues and no exposure to other industries besides retail and a little bit of healthcare.

      Pros

      Pay. At this point in time, I can't think of anything else to say about Walgreens. At least I still have a job for a few more months.

      Cons

      Job Security, scheduling, not enough help in Pharmacy or in the store. No vacations after September. Uniforms not very comfy.

      Love the customers-not so much the management

      Pros

      "family" type closeness between employees, helping some of the most wonderful and interesting customers, good profit sharing plan, company helps you get certified, CEO and upper management keep us in formed about changes.

      Cons

      The biggest downside of working here is the politics. I have witnessed unfair treatment by management and withholding sick and vacation pay because management lost notes requesting the pay- then refusung a cash payout. When the issues are brought to district level or even higher, the issues get dismissed because the store's numbers are good. If you are under a management level-you're feelings and family life are not important. In store we are expected to cater to the abusive, mean customers (giving giftcards, apologies), but we can't show the wonderful customers how much we appreciate them by offering them giftcards or special offers.
