Retail pharmacy is terrible to begin with, it also doesn't help that the company is unsupportive and the pay sucks. - Pharmacy Technician Rite Aid Employee Review

Pros

I was a pharm tech and I learned a lot about medication and interactions when filling out prescriptions and talking to the pharmacist.

Cons

There's a great divide between the management of the actual store and the management of the pharmacy. You stand all day in that small space, even when there's nothing to do, there are no break times EVER, you could be there all day and not be allotted time to even eat, you just have to sneak and do it in the corner, which is terrible. Upper management never visited the store, everything was always over the phone.
