    • Assistant Managers does not have BONUSES..Wrong information.

    • All assistant managers vary. Some do get bonuses, while some don’t. While you may not get a bonus, it doesn’t mean the other stores don’t. Trust me, our insiders know who gets what 🙂

    • Admin , WRONG! your insiders are wrong that is across the board that an assistant manager doesn’t get a bonus. you are thinking of an EXA which is an executive assistant manager, which is a salary position. Also profit sharing is based on what you contribute up to 3 percent i think.

    • Steph, assistant managers do get bonuses based on the region. As you stated, an EXA is an assistant manager. There are just varying levels to the assistant manager position. You have to understand that Walgreens GREATLY vary region to region.
