Pros

They are very flexible with time schedules and summer activities. the work you do is very standard and easy to do

Cons

lack of planning, you are basically just summer help. no organization. working as a cashier for a summer job is sweet, but...

Pros

Decent place to get a start on your managerial career. Do not work there for longer than two years because there are higher paying retail manager jobs out there without having to work the 60 hours and EXA should put in if he/she wants to advance.

Cons

-Low paying job -You will work all major holidays. -Stores should not be open if the pharmacy is closed!!! 6-7 gallons of milk sold on Christmas day does not pay to keep the lights on for the day.

Pros

Set up to feel like you own and run your own clinic Can work in your own community Clinics are set up very functionally Standards of practice are high Salaries are decent Benefits respectable Has given Nurse Practitioners recognition as providers. Is owned by Walgreens, therefore offers some stability in these difficult times.

Cons

Feels like you run your own clinic..... until they start to micromanage. Too many changes without getting input from providers. Less and less treated as professionals but rather like "employees". You will be punching a clock. Company keeps growing at the top while diminishing support at the bottom. Sadly, NPs are near the bottom. While scope of practice is limited, they keep adding services to bring in money. This is fine except that they don't work in the actual setting and have an unrealistic view of what will succeed and how to make it succeed. Too many new grads who don't know enough yet to practice independently.
