This position has helped me understand how to make ours store more efficient for both the costumers and staff - Recensione dipendente - Shift Leader/Manager presso Walgreens
Working at Walgreens comes with the benefit of helping people get their essentials. While at the same time building meaningful relationships with people who come from similar communities as me.
Svantaggi
Although sometimes It can be frustrating to deal with costumers who assume that a manager is a “one size fits all solution” to any issue that they may have in the store
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.
