Business Outlook

Pros

They work with my schedule and are friendly and fair. There is great commodary between employees and teamwork. There are several departments that you can transfer into if your department is not what you are passionate about. Weekly paychecks!

Cons

As a Barista, I still have to help in the Deli- I am not a fan of deli work. We are part of a union, which costs about $10 a week, but I get billed 3 months at a time and $120 is a little overwhelming.

Pros

Professional Environment. Adequate ancillary staffing. Realistic Management expectations. Opportunity to advance professional service and clinical pharmaceutical care opportunities.

Cons

If you are lazy or lack self-initiative as a Pharmacist you would probably not enjoy working in an environment that can become as busy as a Fred Meyer Pharmacies are. We are connected to our customers and service is work.
