A Walgreens pharmacy career

What's the payoff?
  1. Share Walgreens
  2. Stock Purchase Plan
  3. Profit Sharing Plan



It's more than a job — it's 3 ways to help you reach your financial goals.

1. Share Walgreens

Share Walgreens is a stock purchase/stock option plan that allows you to purchase stock in the future at today's prices, usually to your advantage.

Here's how it works:
    1. First, you purchase Walgreens common stock through Share Walgreens — up to 10% of your salary at maximum eligibility — paying by cash or through Company financing.

    2. Then you receive stock options — the right to purchase more shares of Company stock in the future at a fixed rate.

    3. When you feel the time to buy is right, you can exercise your options by buying more stock at the fixed rate when vested.
2. Stock Purchase Plan

Don't let the similar-sounding terminology for our "Share Walgreens" stock option plan and that of our Stock Purchase Plan confuse you. Despite the fact that they both deal with Walgreens stock, they are separate programs.

Our Stock Purchase Plan gives you the opportunity to buy Walgreens stock at a 10% discount with no brokers' fees. This financial advantage, when compounded over time, can add up to substantial savings for you. And if you factor in the performance of Walgreens stock over time, your initial investment has the potential to multiply dramatically.


3. Profit Sharing Plan Walgreens 401(k)

You contribute 2% of your annual salary through our Profit Sharing Plans. Once you reach a certain salary level each year, your contribution increases to 5%. The company then matches that contribution, based on Company profits for that year.

Compare the facts. Then come join us in delivering the quality patient care that has made us the leader in retail pharmacy.
