Much too busy with an unrealistic workload. - Recensione dipendente - Pharmacist presso Walgreens

Inadequately staffed. Insanely busy. Upper management is unresponsive to real world needs, they will simply give you the runaround. The goals they "expect" you to achieve are completely unattainable and unrealistic given these circumstances. Over the past 3 years they have added numerous tasks (flu shots, blood pressure screening, cholesterol testing, diabetes monitoring, medication therapy management)......but have actually decreased hours! How does this make sense? There's an excellent chance you won't receive lunches or even have enough time for so much as a bathroom break. The telephones are often left unanswered for long periods of time, simply because there isn't enough help to answer them. The company makes zero effort in retaining top technician talent......who usually leave after realizing they can make more money waiting tables. 3 percent 401K match is low compared to competitors, and health benefits continues to erode every year. I would not recommend working for this company. Even getting your prescriptions filled as a customer may prove challenging seeing how overwhelmed most stores currently are.
