Pros

Decent place to work in comparison to other retail pharmacies BUT is the same - focus on metrics.....long hours....barely any lunch breaks depending on your store. Pay is good and so is the 1199 union coverage within the NYC area (store-dependent again) but best chain among the other two common choices of CVS and Walgreens/DR.

Cons

As mentioned previously, long hours and barely any lunch breaks. This is something very characteristic of retail pharmacy, not so much Rite Aid specifically. Once again, everything is store-dependent.
