If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at Rite Aid?
Meilleure réponse des employés
I would get rid of management at my DC. They have no respect or concern for the workers. Our pay is too low, our productivity quotas are too high and the heat in the DC is unhealthy and unbearable . They keep,pushing us and pushing us. We have 2-3 hours overtime every day. It will be a Kira clear if someone doesn't try to get a union in here.
Reimbursement for college classes for front end associates.
Wouldnt wish this place upon my worst enemy sadly. More often than not you are pushed on overtime which is mandatory. And if there is Saturday's sometimes volunteer but most of the time mandatory. Breaks and lunches does not include the walk to the break room so out of a 15 min break your only getting 5-10 mins. They expect you to go everywhere in gods green earth and yet expect you to make productivity. Pay is poor for what they expect of you.
