Pros

Pay and benefits are pretty good. From speaking with other pharmacists, pay may be better at other companies

Cons

My biggest peeve is that they have non-professional staff managing the pharmacy. They have no experience in the pharmacy but have way too much influence over the pharmacy manager and on our job. Its no longer about patient care and more about getting surveys and pushing charity donations. They are constantly making cuts to budget and staffing which increases the burden on those who remain. If your store is in a bad area and you have poor management, it becomes a really hostile environment.

Pros

pay was decent I guess

Cons

no promotions, no good management, a lot of people in positions that do absolutely nothing, very cliquey, constant checking in 1:1's, no growth in your career, favoritism, toxic environment.
