August 2018 • Wilmette, IL

What I liked

The people I am working with and the support system that exists amongst the employees.

What I wish was different

The Walgreens in understaffed for the patient volume, and they have some policies that slow down the workflow making it inefficient and inconvenient for employees.

It is a good job overall and it gives good experience working in customer service, especially since some customers are rather hostile and really test your ability to remain calm and helpful.

What I liked

What I wish was different

The retail part of the job was very unappealing. Having to deal with rude and impatient customers on a daily basis was no enjoyable. That being said it helped me realize that I did not want to do that for the rest of my life.
