Pros

The people are sometimes okay

Cons

Where do I even start? Management is terrible, scheduling is horrible, they barely train you, no communication skills whatsoever, the list is endless.

Pros

Decent PTO accrual IF you’re an employee for longer than a year

Cons

Where do I start? -Constantly understaffed, and Walgreens doesn’t pay well so you get people with little to no experience, or people that don’t care enough to work, so it’s a constant cycle of new techs in and out -Budget cuts -Unrealistic expectations as far as what all needs to be done on a daily basis -Corporate seems to think this is a sales job, constantly forcing employees to “sell” donations, surveys, vaccinations, etc and write ups if they catch you not doing this regularly -Verbal harassment from customers for things that are beyond your control -No raises for senior techs. They claim that raises are available, but I wasn’t certified when I was hired. All techs received a market raise, then there’s a $1 for becoming certified, then another $1 raise to become Sr. Tech. i took the PTCB and got the $1, however I was at 15.50 before my Sr. Tech promo so they claimed I had already hit max pay for techs, therefore all I got was additional responsibilities but no raise -No career growth unless you want to stay in retail
