Pros

Pays okay after certification (would recommend getting before applying that way you can request higher pay from the start) Allows overtime when short staffed so picking up shifts at other locations Benefits are great except after 1 year of employment

Cons

0 ethics. They will cater to people who are getting their pills to sell which there were so many and it would be so obvious that’s what they’re getting for. I worked at another pharmacy as well and we did not fill specific colors or manufactures they’d request unless requested by the doctor with a reason so the types of customers you deal with are entitled, rude and demanding, will blame you for not having done your job right even though it’s illegal to do what they’re wanting. System is so inefficient for finding profiles and scripts and for the POS.

Pros

There were no pros at all.

Cons

My experience at the Frisco location was largely negative due to the store leadership team, headed by Stacie Sorenson. I found the management approach to be unsupportive and at times created a stressful work environment. I often felt singled out and treated differently because of my background and appearance, which made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome during my internship. Pay was not competitive compared to similar employers. Scheduling was often inconsistent and difficult to plan around. In my experience, HR tended to support store leadership rather than adequately addressing employee concerns. The quality of the internship experience varies greatly depending on the store and management team. There can be resentment from some employees toward interns, particularly from those who were interested in the program but were not selected. Communication, mentorship, and support were not at the level I expected from a company that promotes its internship program so heavily.
