Pros

The compensation was fair. The work environment itself was for the most part cleanly and reasonable.

Cons

The hours of retail management are awful but you know that going into it. The company is so focused on the pharmacy and their staff that you begin to feel like you are just an extra. As a result of the size of the physical store itself you only have a few employees on each shift which means you end up doing a lot of the grunt work. There were days were I got paid just to be a 'stock boy.'

Pros

I love my team so much and we have some regular patients that are amazing.

Cons

Well I'm supposed to be full time but the last few weeks in feeling barely 30 hours a week. We have staff and no hours, customers are hateful. We're exhausted.
