Vantaggi

Can't think of any. The company is getting worse with time, I wouldn't ever fill my prescriptions here (and I'm a pharmacy employee).

Svantaggi

Constant cutting of hours. Dangerous pharmacy environment conditions - we need to fill prescriptions faster with less help. We are getting our pharmacy hours cut every month, even though our prescription volume is constantly increasing. Mistakes are happening left and right, pharmacists are under more stress and pressure to vaccinate and perform health tests to everyone. This is a job, not a career. There is no way to move up. You do the same job everyday, eight hours, getting berated by customers and by your superiors. Pharmacy managers are dropping left and right because there is too much work being given to them. You are required to work on your vacation days. You are expected to use your vacation days to do flu clinics. This is not the company it used to be ten years ago. Crap benefits and crap insurance because we were all thrown into the marketplace. This company is getting cheaper and cheaper by the minute. To anyone interested in a pharmacy job, go ask any pharmacy employee what their honest opinion is. Your pay is capped at some point and won't ever increase; though you are required to work harder and faster.

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.
