Pros

Coworkers were great, job is fulfilling, pay is decent

Cons

Store manager will tell you that your medical accommodations won’t be recognized and you “don’t qualify for them” despite HR saying the opposite. You will be told to “take some breaths and focus on getting through the day” when having a severe flare from your medical condition that you can’t control. The AC frequently doesn’t work in the pharmacy.
