Pros

I enjoy the job/ the hours/the people I work / all the regulars that come in but the hourly amount is not livable. Its a very easy job so its worth what they pay I would recommend this job to someone who is retired and just needs some extra cash or someone who is going to college to pull in some extra cash. Great company and great job duties all around

Cons

the pay is not the best

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.
