Pros
Insurance.is all right, and I am glad to have it.
Kontras
We are expected to provide superior service and get everything done in the store, stocking, planograms, checking out of dates, printing film, helping customers etc etc etc with two people in the store's front end, and sometimes with only one person, the manager. The overall morale is in the sewer. Employees who have been there almost a decade full time are getting their hours cut so RA can bring in "shift supervisors" for barely minimum wage. No raise to speak of, and many have had salary cuts. Not allowed to run a register and do simple things like returns, modifies, or voids over $2.99 w/o manager approval. Of course, the manager is busy in the store and often the customer must stand waiting for several minutes waiting on a manager's register approval because they decided not to get an item or a sale item did not ring up right (an ongoing problem, especially for the TPR's) No raise, no lab bonus, everything questioned by mid and upper level management. Snarky emails from mid upper almost every day. They have the new CCC program, or whatever it's called. "It's my Rite Aid and I love it????" Waste of time and probably money, nothing is happening any differently except they have added an additional "employee appreciation day", where we get 30% off. (Not on sale items, of course) WoooHooooooo. I am thrilled. I am afraid RA is on the way to bankruptcy anyway. I hope not, I would like to keep my job that I used to love, I really need the insurance.
