Pros

There are no pros to working here.

Cons

They micromanage you, they can’t tell you where any policies are for things like attendance, sick time, etc! There is no sick time and if you call off they take your pto. They make things up and say you have occurrences when you don’t, and they don’t even talk to you about it, not really. There is nothing positive here and when they talk to you it’s about what you’re doing wrong. No positive thinking or reinforcement. They micromanage. There function leads are as phoney as the day is long. The one who was my lead not only was she incapable of, she was incompetent, unapproachable, judgmental, and just as fake as can be. She had no business being in leadership. They promote people who do the bare minimum or barely show up for work. There’s no one on ones with your boss and when they do mange to talk to you it’s about things being done wrong as a team and not individual. There’s no building anyone up here. Anyone thinking of working here, run! The calls are back to back to back and the patients are just rude with no manners and management doesn’t have your back but they don’t care about patients either! They go into “meetings” on a daily basis but are gone for over an hour and there’s no one in go to if there’s an issue or emergency. They just don’t care! This place is dark, toxic and evil! Run!

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
