Pros

Decent starting pay. Good benefits including health insurance, 401(k) with matching contributions, ESPP; all for someone who works 1 day per month per diem.

Cons

Tech hours seem to get cut more and more. Tech and Pharmacist work 10 hour shifts with 15 min at most for lunch. Was told by my Pharmacy Manager that even though I have never been late or absent and have done an excellent job, the highest raiting they can give on performance reviews is a 3 out of 5, to anyone! No raise in sight, was told that the company does not approve raises often.

Pros

The Managers are really down to earth and very supportive and respectful of you life outside the job. The people you work with actually care about you because they see the job has more of a Team effort than and individuals doing and they don't like that balance broking becasue it works very well to satisfy the employees and the customers.

Cons

you are on your feet the whole day to a point that you literally start developing leg muscle that you forgot or never knew was there, its not really a down side but it does take a week or two to get used to. Hint: Where comfortable shoes and Dr. Scholls foot pads will not kill you.
