Pros

Walgreens does have the best 401K, Profit Sharing.

Cons

I work in Chicago district 9, I've been with Walgreens for 12 year's and the way assistant manager's & employee's are being treated is insane we bust are ass and it is never enough no matter how hard we work to get work done all we here is criticism or get are butt's chewd out because we did not get 1 work task done, it is impossible to please store manager's who sit in the office all day and talk on the phone and on facebook on there cell phone , executive manager's most of them walk around the store & write note's and give there work to everyone else while they pretend to work in the stockroom, & district office just don't know what's going on in the store's. MORE TO COME

Pros

Gave me decent pay. Bought us little gifts and food at holidays.

Cons

Gave away one of my paychecks to another employee and refused to reimburse me because of issues with "their bank." My RxM created a hostile work environment showing clear favoritism for employees. Eventually, HR got involved, and I was no longer scheduled with him. I did not ask for this change, and actively resented it, because now I had fewer hours, meaning less pay on top of the $500 corporate had already stolen from me. They had no interest in training me or anyone else to become certified as promised. Over and over again, they hired people, ran out the time on their licenses, and let techs choose between paying to get certified elsewhere, or losing their jobs. The only thing Walgreens was passionate about was convincing patients that they couldn't even provide their regular medications to get vaccines. Often unneeded. The "patient care" calls are blatant and illegal marketing for vaccines, since Walgreens makes it next to impossible for a patient to opt out of it. I would NEVER get my medications here after seeing how poorly everything is managed, how unethical company policies and patient health were regarded, and how mistreated the staff were.
