Pros

Salary, Team members, Cross-training, Exposure, Bonus until 2017 no more

Cons

No work and life balance. The company does not care for their team members and continue to reduce hours and team members however the demand for execution is non- stop. You are expected to run a multimillion dollar store with almost no employees and then be hold accountable because the customer service scores are low how in the world do you pretend to demand something like that when there are no employees to provide the service.

Pros

Can be a fun environment. All in whom your staff is. Operating photo was fun and building projects for the customers. Learning about pharmacy operations.

Cons

Work life balance and low pay for what is expected. Not having enough payroll to effectively run a store. My store ran FE on a 320 hour a week budget. That was barely enough to get buy and meet the expectations put out by the company. I was never able to keep a full leadership staff. When a leader called out, I had to stay. There were days I was called away from my own dinner table. SM's were forced to be in the pharmacy for more than half of their day regardless as to what is happening in the FE. I worked over 50 hours a week and barely got to spend time with my family. If I wasn't at the store I was getting a phone call and having to go back to the store.
