Way behind the market

Pharmacy assistant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Health insurance is provided after 3 months

Cons

Some of the lowest wages in the industry at all levels, from pharmacy cashier to pharmacist manager. Bleeding talented staff, operating on outdated compensation and benefit packages, unwilling or unable to respond to the skilled job market. This is a great place if you value massive levels of stress, negligible support, wages and benefits that have not been competitive in a decade+. Stay away.
