@rbreich Shall we all start taking bets on how long Walgreens has before it is sucked dry and left to rot next to the gutter?
If Walgreens has been sold off to private equity that suggests that Walgreens will be stripped of its assets and made to die.
I would like to point out that in the current market in the US food or pharmacies, this would mean that the American public would face a future of even more consolidation.
It’s like the story I ran across the other day where Chinese fire department equipment has been made illegal for US cities so PE is taking advantage of this
Friends of labour might block Walgreen's doors.
@rbreich Only time in years I've gone into a Walgreens was for a FedEx drop off or (once) a Western Union pickup. I don't see that changing any time soon.
@rbreich
So that is why items that are FSA eligible at every other pharmacy are rejected at Walgreens ?
I have to keep saying to the clerk: "Sorry but I will not get it. I have go to CVS to buy it with FSA to use my money".
She keeps smiling at me: "I understand".
!!! CEO dude, you are driving your company into the ground. Try to use some of those money to buy some leadership lessons !!!
@rbreich And customer service at their locations has dropped significantly. Private Equity people just look at numbers and have no idea how to properly run a retail store.
@rbreich the Walgreens near my house is really circling the drain-- many empty shelves, almost no employees present.
@rbreich I'm sorry. Your stat holidays aren't protected by law!?
