Pros

Overall majority of the Pharmacist were nice and friendly, very family oriented, and understanding of your needs. Database to process prescription is very modern and much more advance than other systems used by rival companies.

Cons

High turnover rate, even at the store/district management level. Saw 3 different district managers in a matter of 1 year, of which the first 4 months, no district manager existed. Company required employees to pay out of their own pocket for business expense including registration and application fees to the state in order to work in the pharmacy. Company refused to reimburse for costs. Difficulty granting full time hours unless you're willing to work in multiple stores. Health benefits/coverage are minimal/joke compared to costs to purchase coverage and requirements demanded for constant eligibility. Pay offered is lower than other rival companies. Opportunities for advancement is low, and potential for raises are even lower.
