Pros

I enjoy most of the people I work with along with some of the regular customers that come in as well.

Cons

Rite Aid pays horrible with little to no raises. Nobody is ever on the same page which results in bad customer service. Would NEVER shop at Rite Aid if I didn't work there.

Employee Morale is Low

Pros

Insurance.is all right, and I am glad to have it.

Cons

We are expected to provide superior service and get everything done in the store, stocking, planograms, checking out of dates, printing film, helping customers etc etc etc with two people in the store's front end, and sometimes with only one person, the manager. The overall morale is in the sewer. Employees who have been there almost a decade full time are getting their hours cut so RA can bring in "shift supervisors" for barely minimum wage. No raise to speak of, and many have had salary cuts. Not allowed to run a register and do simple things like returns, modifies, or voids over $2.99 w/o manager approval. Of course, the manager is busy in the store and often the customer must stand waiting for several minutes waiting on a manager's register approval because they decided not to get an item or a sale item did not ring up right (an ongoing problem, especially for the TPR's) No raise, no lab bonus, everything questioned by mid and upper level management. Snarky emails from mid upper almost every day. They have the new CCC program, or whatever it's called. "It's my Rite Aid and I love it????" Waste of time and probably money, nothing is happening any differently except they have added an additional "employee appreciation day", where we get 30% off. (Not on sale items, of course) WoooHooooooo. I am thrilled. I am afraid RA is on the way to bankruptcy anyway. I hope not, I would like to keep my job that I used to love, I really need the insurance.

Pros

if you work in a union store and have union employees with longevity you will have an easier life they work and know what to do to get the job done.

Cons

If you are a valued employee you will be transferred around as the needs arrive reguardless of the burdon it puts on your family life and compensation
