Pros

Flexible hours, great team leader (pharmacy mgr.)

Cons

Pharmacy is extremely busy and very understaffed. This leads to a VERY stressful environment which leads to quick burn out, but also leads to an over abundance of angry, dissatisfied customers. Poor training program. . . If you want to call it that. Team meetings were put off for at least 8 months, due to 'not able to afford it' or we can't because it will put us over budget (this really takes the cake!). All of this is due to the penny-pinching company. I do not recommend!

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
