Pros

Constantly improving/updating the Windows-based Pharmacy Dispensing System, NexGen. Decent 401(k) match of 4% on your 5% contribution. Decreased Hours on weekend, basically 9-6 instead of 9 to 9 everywhere else on Saturdays.3 hours is a BIG deal.

Cons

Ridiculous amount of transfer-coupon programs. Here's a $30 gift card, no, let's make that 4-$30 gift cards, and oh, you want me to match Walmart's $4 plan on all 4 of your prescription transfers? Sure, no problem. And which aisle is the KY Jelly in? Seems everything is higher priced, OTC's included, which increases the number of "unpleasant" encounters with the customers. lowered salary and loss of overlap commensurate with shorter open hours.
