Walgreens

"1/2024 update: things have gotten much better at this location. Big shout out to the pharmacist, Chris. He’s always helpful and responsive. 1/2022 update: it’s shameful what’s become of this pharmacy. Expect to wait days for medications to be filled ..IF they are even filled. It’s obvious they’re inundated and that’s not the fault of the staff. Shame on Walgreens corporate. I don't understand the negative reviews. This is an excellent pharmacy. I've never had an issue with a prescription. The staff is knowledgable and courteous. I also like the photo department here. They're very quick!"

"Honestly this is the best pharmacy I've used in years. One of the meds I'm on had a shortage last year, so I've been to many different pharmacies and had many bad experiences. The pharmacist that helped me today (Steven I think?) went above and beyond to be honest. They were out of the strength of my medication, he called me in the AM and left a msg to let me know, then he called my doctor for me to obtain a script of a different strength without me having to ask. A new script was ready later that day to pick up. Keep up the good work"

"no one answers the pharmacy phone and you stand on line( whether it’s inside or drive thru) for at least 25 mins everytime. it’s absolutely ridiculous they need to increase their staff or pay these people enough that they want to work"

"It was my first time at this location as I am new to this area. Crystal was very pleasant and made my checkout experience phenomenal. She was very friendly and possessed a lot of product knowledge. Can not thank her enough! Crystal is awesome!"

"I applied for a job at Walgreens in Old Bridge, N.J. I was offered the job at $15.50/hour. They told me they had to perform a background check. I emailed a letter to human resources about my background. That letter went unheard and I never received a response. I am not perfect and have made some mistakes in my life. They didn't even give me a fair chance to explain ANYTHING! It is so sad that for people with ANYTHING on they're background report, that automatically disqualifies you for the opportunity to work at that place. As is the case with me. People wonder why someone like me has to rely on welfare when I am perfectly capable of working and someone else could use the benefits I will be receiving. These jobs could at least request a probationary period, or if it is drugs on your background then they should test those people randomly. Instead, they look at a piece of paper and judge you by a piece of paper when I am much much much more then that. This is what's wrong with the world, that some of us are completely looked past. How is anyone supposed to try to better their life and become a productive member of society? I have 0 felonies, 0 drug charges but again why does it matter? Yes, I have made poor choices but I'm trying to better my life for myself and my children whom I have custody. These places are the reason we have people who re-offend, because no one wants to hire anyone with ANYTHING on your record. It's a safe world we live in because then people like me will be called "lazy" say that I'm "sucking off the state" when they don't know how hard I've been trying and because of places like this, we are turned away."
