Vantaggi

Good commute for living in the suburbs. Love the Healthy Living Center on campus ($5 copays for the doctor, physical therapy, pharmacy, work out facility, massage therapist, etc). Good benefits and salary. Main Deerfield campus has nice, updated facilities.

Svantaggi

Not much job security as more departments are turning to outside contractors and consultants. Not the best HR staff. Lack of leadership and mentoring in some departments. IT support and innovation seems to be behind the times (just got wifi in some of the corp buildings, can't print wirelessly or in other departments, etc). Senior Management is trying to emphasize culture and values but it's hard to believe in and live out with some of the decisions being made from the top down. 40hr work week has disappeared.

Vantaggi

Can be a fun environment. All in whom your staff is. Operating photo was fun and building projects for the customers. Learning about pharmacy operations.

Svantaggi

Work life balance and low pay for what is expected. Not having enough payroll to effectively run a store. My store ran FE on a 320 hour a week budget. That was barely enough to get buy and meet the expectations put out by the company. I was never able to keep a full leadership staff. When a leader called out, I had to stay. There were days I was called away from my own dinner table. SM's were forced to be in the pharmacy for more than half of their day regardless as to what is happening in the FE. I worked over 50 hours a week and barely got to spend time with my family. If I wasn't at the store I was getting a phone call and having to go back to the store.
