Pros

Pay was ok given I am a single recent college grad with no kids. A 44 hour workweek was good because you always have automatic overtime and won't wind up woking 60 hours a week.

Kontras

Training is almost nonexistant. I was hired right before Christmas (dumb choice for them) and put off to the side and spent most of my days on the register for the 1st couple of weeks. My store manager acted as if it was a chore to teach me what I needed to know as a manager. Once I got some training, I thrown into the fire and pretty much ran the entire store when I was on shift. The pay was ok but it was not worth the amount of work you do. I made 15.90/hr. I often did not take a lunch, and if i did it was for 30 mins. And as for breaks? Forget about it!! My manager told me that assistant manager don't take breaks...unless you're a smoker of couse, as she was, so then it was ok to take a break. I hated this job so much I finally quit and took a massive paycut to enjoy my work.

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.

Kontras

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.
