Hi, can anyone share their experience of working at Walgreens recently? They've gone through a lot of changes and hired a new CEO. Do you think this is a good time to join?

If you're looking for long term stability/growth and opportunity for bonus, no. They are not doing well as a company. Also benefits are not awesome and it probably won't look great in your resume to join at this time of decline for anyone who knows. Sorry. But if you just need a paycheck now, go for it.

In my current job search, they come up a lot on the Illinois Job Link site...and with them closing stores all over the place, I don't think its the place to work right now.

What kind of role?

in the back office, analytics, AI

Have a friend who works there. They’re going through an acquisition and it’s an unstable time to join them.

25 years ago when pharmacists were in very short supply, Walgreens was offering great salaries and top notch benefits. One of them that made many wealthy was their stock. Today, their stock is in the toilet and it appears a private equity firm is buying them out and try to turn things around.

Not a good time to join. They are in the process of closing many stores, eliminating positions, and laying people off in many area of the country.
