Pros
I work with great people. I like what I'm doing there and I never get micromanaged. It's a Monday-Friday job with an on call shift once every 2-3 months. Health care benefits are excellent.
Cons
Salary is a joke, easily 15-20% or more below typical retail salaries. There are no bonuses. There are no merit raises (i.e. you save them a million dollars this week and you're lucky to get a thanks) Yearly raises border on non-existent, and the process is laughable. 10% of people get no raise, 10% get a 1% raise, 60% get a 2% raise, 10% get a 3% raise, and 10% get a 4% raise. Oh but you're not competing against just other pharmacists for those above mentioned crumbs, you're competing against everybody. So a clerk who's job is to alphabetize things is graded the same way a pharmacist is, so it's no surprise that since the clerk knows the alphabet really well that clerk is almost certain to get a 4% raise. Also lets not forget that 4% on a pharmacists salary is a lot more than 4% on a clerks salary. I'm basically telling you to expect 2% no matter what you do.
