Pro's and con's
CUSTOMER SERVICE ASSOCIATE (Former Employee) – Ashburn, VA – June 30, 2018
The atmosphere has a lot to do with whether or not walgreen's will be a nice, stress-free job, or a stressful and frustrating place of work. The store I worked at was one of the busiest in the area, but we were lucky to have a great store manager, and staff that actively engaged in appropriate, friendly work relationships. As a company, walgreen's does not pay its employees what they are worth. Over the course of three year i had only made a 56 cent increase in pay, a coworker had only made a cent increase in the course of a year.
Pros
staff relationships, paid 15 minute break
Cons
pay
Easy and hard job. Friendly workplace, lots to do.
Shift Lead (Current Employee) – Eugene, OR – October 18, 2018
Easy job as a cashier, as you progress, naturally, the job gets harder. Any and all training is provided. Very friendly and understanding workplace with lots to do at all times. Very busy environment, you have to learn quick.
Pros
Lunches and 15 minute breaks, training, decent pay, plenty of opportunity to move up.
Cons
Open Holidays, inconsitent schedule and hours.
Rewarding Job
Certified Pharmacy Technician (Current Employee) – Newport News, VA – October 18, 2018
A typical day at work is constantly busy and fast paced. Before applying, consider the appropriate footwear for 8-10 hour long shifts. Aside from that, the job is rewarding and the patients make you feel like you really solved their problems
Long time employee

Poor upper management

Pharmacist Intern (Former Employee) – Coral Springs, FL 33071 – October 18, 2018
I worked for walgreens right out of high school. I went from being a cashier to being a pharmacy intern. I was hoping to become a pharmacist as well but things did not work out as planned. good company.
Worst place I have ever worked!
Sales associate (Former Employee) – Clovis, CA – October 18, 2018
The Walgreens I worked at was awful. Our GM did nothing for the store. We have three good managers but two of them quit due to the poor treatment of employees at the store. The training is insufficient for many of the jobs. The only way to advance your career at my store was to suck up to the management. I would not recommend working at the store in Clovis NM.
Pros
Flexible hours
Cons
Horrible management
Easy-going workplace provided you get your work done.
Service Clerk/Customer Service Associate (Former Employee) – Burlington, KY – October 18, 2018
During my time working at Walgreens I was also a student. I came in when I could and the management was good about working around my schedule. I did a lot of different things on the job. They train you pretty much everywhere in the store, which I see as becoming very well-rounded and gave me the ability to do whatever I was asked. I normally worked in the photo department, which meant customer service, dealing with the printers and printing software, as well as building photo items themselves. Overall, I loved the atmosphere and the workplace as a whole.
Great companies to work for.
Customer Sales Associate (Current Employee) – Austin, TX – October 18, 2018
Walgreens is great. The only issue that may occur is understaffing or the management playing favoritism. Luckily, the larger management is there to help correct the store.

Company went downhill
Store Manager (Former Employee) – Kalamazoo, MI – October 18, 2018
Enjoyed interacting with customers, however the hours a store manager works are a little excessive. Compensation used to be good, but the salary structure and bonus structure were changed. Upper management was always super critical, and all they did was make cuts in payroll and good personnel.
Executive Assistant Manager
Pharmacy Technician / Executive Assistant Manager (Former Employee) – Battle Creek, MI – October 18, 2018
Walgreens in a leader in pharmacy services and customer service. offering all the needs of consumers. offers incredible benefits and opportunities for advancement.
Always short handed staff
Pharmacist-in-charge (Former Employee) – Little Rock, AR – October 18, 2018
Everyday your behind and cannot even go to the restroom. Management would just say we can replace you. Seems the management task were more important than the customers daily.
Pros
