With no actual bonus, no raises, and for the ones that get one(it's like being tipped a penny at a restaurant.......wait until you see what the insurance cost goes up monthly, how does that put you financially. Companies are getting raises that at least keep up with inflation, and some are holding out until they get what they deserve. Some of us have worked over 50 hours a week for four years and through all the covid time and this is how this company treats its people. Finally experienced people are leaving, enough is enough. Some have pride in themself and owe their family so much more.

Thank you for that compliment. After having a rough day working in my pharmacy most of the day yesterday I needed that.

love you bro! good post.
Walgreens is a he-l-hole. If I wasn't on the verge of retirement, I'd be outta here. If you are still early in your career, don't waste your time with Walgreens. With all the talk of cost-cutting coming down the pike, it's unlikely things will improve for employees.
Been interviewing with other companies and can’t wait to get out. Not a religious person but actually been praying to get out of this company with how bad things are. Not worth the stress and the impact it has been taking on my health.
Experienced people have been leaving the last several years now. We had 2 Area meetings several months ago. Most managers I didn’t recognize any longer makes me wonder why I have stayed so long now. Most of the managers in my district have less than 6-7 years experience as a manager. Most of the managers that I looked up to as the ones with the most experience have long gone. I once thought I would retire from here but frankly if I can find something I am going to be gone. I told my DM 3-4 years ago I didn’t like the direction we were headed and being that I came from a company that filed bankruptcy before I came here I didn’t like the way things were getting. When I left that company I didn’t realize how stressed out I really was being there and when I left it felt like a huge burden got lifted off of me.
