Cashier/Stocker

February - August 2019 • Philadelphia, PA

What I liked

My coworkers. They made the job much more fulfilling. They were always there to support me whenever I needed help as this was my first retail job. The atmosphere was friendly too and it made my day when a customer would leave with a smile on their face.

What I wish was different

Not enough people scheduled for the 2am truck day shift. It consisted of only one manager and one employee. If I couldn't make it one day, then it would cause too much problems.

Advice

You must follow RiteAids core values. One of them is being passionate for your customers. Show them that you want to help and be friendly while you're at it.

Cashier

June 2018 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I like that the job was flexible with the schedule that I gave them.

What I wish was different

I applied for a job at Walgreens but was placed to work at Rite Aid. I wish that I would’ve known this in advance so that I could continue to look for jobs at Walgreens because there’s more Walgreens stores than Rite Aid in case that I had to transfer closer to home, like now.

Advice

This is a good establishment and recommend it to other people. It’s good to work at stores like Rite Aid to build experience.
