      It all depends on what assistant and keyholders you get.

      Pros

      Good pay. Room for advancement. Lots of locations. High turnover in store level management so if you want your own store you can get it pretty easily.

      Cons

      Varies greatly from store to store. Union hourly employees in my area. Hard to work with payroll. District management is lacking sometimes. Working at a drugstore the pharmacy is all that matters and the front end gets crapped on. If the pharmacy wants one of the front end employees they get them. When employees complain about the pharmacy you tell them I'll talk them thembut in reality you have no authority to do anything about the pharmacy.

      Pros

      I personally have an excellent manager and boss, but that can vary from store to store. 20% discounts on everything except sales items, liquor and cigarettes.

      Cons

      No bonuses, limited incentives that are overall end up being lame. Current contest awards $500 (split up between all employees at the store) for signing people up for a discount card. Small raises (under 50 cents) per year for pharmacy techs.

      Rite Aid - Wrong, Wrong, Wrong!

      Associate/cashier

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The best reason to work for Rite Aid is its multiple locations; there's always a Rite Aid by your house. The next best thing is the ease of getting a job, but it only means one thing - high employee turnover and very little satisfaction.

      Cons

      Rite Aid assumes that its employees are brain dead. There is no encouragement to try and solve problems. Every single thing needs a manager's approval. There are far too many assistant managers, completely out of sync with each others' demands, frantically running around the store. Most customers lose all self-respect and manners when they enter the store. They throw childish fits if the cashier is unable to finish the sale quickly enough (there's a need for a MGR's approval every step of the way, even a pack of gum the customer no longer wants) and treat employees like slaves/indentured servants.
