Pros

Pharmacists get a true lunch break and are allowed to close the pharmacy for 30 min each day. The technology used is top of the line however having internet access would be a very beneficial resource. Having no drive-thru window is such a perk. Medicine is not fast food and should not be treated as such.

Cons

The $4 generic program has increased prescription volume but decreased revenue so inturn the workload is more but the budget has not increased enough to allow for additional help. More work + same number staff = long waits, dissatisfied customers, and disgruntled pharmacy employees

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
