Pros

There were several friendly coworkers. The pay was decent.

Cons

store manager was terrible. some of the other techs and certainly pharmacists were extremely rude and condescending. Barely any training whatsoever. Not allowed to ask questions, expected to know everything there is to know from watching some garbage videos and doing computer training which was a waste of time. who could remember any of it it's not very understandable at all. Most of it made no sense to me. Stressful work conditions with no help from people who supposedly know what they are doing even the people who were senior technicians barely showed up which made it harder for me as well.

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.
