Pros
Rite Aid is a company that has potential. At this time, in this part of the country, it has a negative reputation and is struggling to compete with CVS and Walgreens where people have shopped for years. At Rite Aid you have the opportunity to make a difference and take pride in your acomplishments because the people at the lower level are the people who make the biggest difference.
Cons
Rite Aid has a negative reputation. It has been transitioning 1600+ aquired stores and from the standpoint of an employee, has done a good job, but from the standpoint of the customer, they would rather shop elsewhere where there is no disruption. Also, managers are not treated fairly in their payscales. Once you hit a certain level, despite your performance, diligence or experience, you are not even given a cost of living raise. This is even more disheartening when it is public knowledge that the CEO is given an raise of $800,000+ more a year, equivilent to 20% because she deserves it! I think they need to take care of their store employees better. These are the people who will make their company successful.
