Pros

Ummmm? Maybe the pay at one time, but see cons.

Cons

This used to be a great company to work for. They were considered to be the leader in the industry. But ever since the Boots merger it has gone down hill fast! They love to talk out of both side of their mouth. You're held accountable for things you have no power to change. They want to take the focus off the pharmacy and put it on BEAUTY! We are a DRUG STORE! They have no regard for employee's well being. The real red flag is that they are not fixing broken equipment. That always spells trouble when a company tries to save money by not maintaining their stores. They have put all pharmacist salary increases on indefinite hold, but they've got to pay for those Rite Aid stores somehow, right?

Pros

Gave me decent pay. Bought us little gifts and food at holidays.

Cons

Gave away one of my paychecks to another employee and refused to reimburse me because of issues with "their bank." My RxM created a hostile work environment showing clear favoritism for employees. Eventually, HR got involved, and I was no longer scheduled with him. I did not ask for this change, and actively resented it, because now I had fewer hours, meaning less pay on top of the $500 corporate had already stolen from me. They had no interest in training me or anyone else to become certified as promised. Over and over again, they hired people, ran out the time on their licenses, and let techs choose between paying to get certified elsewhere, or losing their jobs. The only thing Walgreens was passionate about was convincing patients that they couldn't even provide their regular medications to get vaccines. Often unneeded. The "patient care" calls are blatant and illegal marketing for vaccines, since Walgreens makes it next to impossible for a patient to opt out of it. I would NEVER get my medications here after seeing how poorly everything is managed, how unethical company policies and patient health were regarded, and how mistreated the staff were.
