Pros

Utilize many useful skills, computer system, weekly salary.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations of tasks and duties to be performed in a 11-12hour day with little to NO technician hours. No bathroom breaks, (everyone is too busy from other departments to help) no lunch breaks. Need to make sure the business is growing, deal with insurance, deal with 3 phone lines, the register, managing inventory, and cleaning up all the work ques. Too many days of being light headed from no food, no water, and having to use the restroom as well as being chastised by management. RUN Fast and RUN Far away from the Pharmacy. There is no work life balance, nor can you apply for a different role.

Pros

Every single person that worked for the company was amazing. The customer service is great and your coworkers will almost make this job worth keeping.

Cons

Management needs to look at the bigger picture. I had to leave after HR would not respond to me for over a month. In my opinion, this is not how I would run a business.
