Vantaggi

The money was pretty good for my first Job out of college. I aced the interview and was offered the job before I graduated from College, it was unexpected but I was so excited I took the job. Learned everything there is to know about retail and how to deal with people face to face and how to get others to follow your directions. It also gave me a very strong work ethic, because there is no way a "Manager can be late or call out EVER" I really needed that experience though.

Svantaggi

THe schedule was miserable especially if you have a family or any kind of social life period. I didn't realize how depressed I was until I found a regular 8-5 job and off on weekends. I feel like I have my life back now. I Never got recognition or praise, was very micro managed and given a list to accomplish every night while running the pharmacy, front of the store and closing the store all by myself. VERY STRESSFUL!!!!!

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.
