Vantaggi

pay and insurance benefits were great, some of the co-workers were a joy but things changed once flexible scheduling and company restructuring took place. Good pay is no substitute for a non-hostile work environment.

Svantaggi

improper/outdated training and materials (no real tools on store net for bedside delivery as of 2/14), understaffed, excessive work load, poor work ethic of fellow employees (last minute call offs, inappropriate shift switches, or intentional work slow down), absent store managers/DMs (ours was always at the DO, Fred Prior seminars, or with the region's other store managers), poor communication (eg. e-mails and phone calls not answered in a timely manner), lack of upper management support. There is no work-life balance if you have children, nor is there any accomodation for non-hourly employee chronic illness (eg. meal breaks for diabetics).

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.
