Pros

Overall Good pay and benefits.

Cons

No breaks whatsoever because of the exaggerated workload for just one pharmacist and they won’t send any help. Very poor management!!! One way communication and no one cares about you

Pros

-They pay you on time. -Most of the employees are great people who are very nice.

Cons

-Huge emphasis on district/corporate standards that are impossible to achieve within budgeted hours. -Never enough people working. -If you're management, you will do the job of 5-6 people constantly. -HR sucks -LOA system is absolutely broken. -They take most of the money generated to pay back shareholders, executives and district management

Pros

Honestly the only pro I can think of is the friendships you develop because of the absolute hell you experience everyday

Cons

Everything about this place is a con. They do not care about their employees and will find any way to make their lives miserable. Most upper management have absolutely no people skills and I’ve witnessed constant disrespect. They will work you until you drop and have no regard for your health whatsoever! Steer clear of the company as a whole!
