Pros

Kroger pays well for retail pharmacy, perhaps a slight hair above the average. They have a lot of good **ideas** that could help progress the profession.

Cons

Long hours, no scheduled lunches or breaks, a never-ending list of new "Key Retailing Best Practices" that micromanage everything you do down to use the Tab key on the keyboard vs. the mouse, increasing responsibilities with decreased tech and pharmacist hours... Kroger also has a knack for promoting less than qualified individuals to higher ranks (everything seems political or popularity based; not performance based).
