Pros

Depending on your store, good support, good team effort, and organization overall competent staff

Cons

Corporate severely out of touch Lopez expecting way too much when everything in the store is locked up. We need more payroll and if you want people to stay to decrease turnover, perhaps we should pay more as incentive to keep them furthermore ever since we got rid of drug testing the quality of candidates has dropped significantly, and I understand that weed is legal in a lot of places, but we are after a pharmacy and healthcare should be our first priority so I believe that we should be drug testing Regardless of job title

Pros

Can be a fun environment. All in whom your staff is. Operating photo was fun and building projects for the customers. Learning about pharmacy operations.

Cons

Work life balance and low pay for what is expected. Not having enough payroll to effectively run a store. My store ran FE on a 320 hour a week budget. That was barely enough to get buy and meet the expectations put out by the company. I was never able to keep a full leadership staff. When a leader called out, I had to stay. There were days I was called away from my own dinner table. SM's were forced to be in the pharmacy for more than half of their day regardless as to what is happening in the FE. I worked over 50 hours a week and barely got to spend time with my family. If I wasn't at the store I was getting a phone call and having to go back to the store.
