Vantaggi

You meet good people and there’s paid training. Ability to work from home because of covid.

Svantaggi

Too corporate all they care about is metrics and numbers. Whatever will make more money. The merge of companies has been very rough. They release software that isn’t ready yet and makes it harder to do your job. The pay isn’t very good for the price of living in Portland. If you are working in Oregon be expected to get and maintain a certification as a pharmacy technician. You will be paid the same as the other facilities that don’t require that certification for the SAME position. So they essentially require more for the same job title at other facilities, but won’t pay you more for the added education. They like to advertise that they will help you get said certification but in reality they stick you in a room for 1.5 hrs a week (for a couple months) with a “trainer” who is really just there to answer questions and not teach you how to pass the test. You are expected to self study on your own and will only pay the certification exam fees IF you pass the test and get certified.

Vantaggi

Gave me decent pay. Bought us little gifts and food at holidays.

Svantaggi

Gave away one of my paychecks to another employee and refused to reimburse me because of issues with "their bank." My RxM created a hostile work environment showing clear favoritism for employees. Eventually, HR got involved, and I was no longer scheduled with him. I did not ask for this change, and actively resented it, because now I had fewer hours, meaning less pay on top of the $500 corporate had already stolen from me. They had no interest in training me or anyone else to become certified as promised. Over and over again, they hired people, ran out the time on their licenses, and let techs choose between paying to get certified elsewhere, or losing their jobs. The only thing Walgreens was passionate about was convincing patients that they couldn't even provide their regular medications to get vaccines. Often unneeded. The "patient care" calls are blatant and illegal marketing for vaccines, since Walgreens makes it next to impossible for a patient to opt out of it. I would NEVER get my medications here after seeing how poorly everything is managed, how unethical company policies and patient health were regarded, and how mistreated the staff were.
