Please what does salaried exempt pharmacist (based on a standard 40 hour work-week schedule) mean when working as a full time staff pharmacist for Walgreens?

Salaried means you aren't paid extra for staying late. Exempt means you aren't guaranteed breaks or overtime.

Is that a good thing or bad thing in a long run? i'm a little bit hesitant now and confused on whether i should accept the offer or not. Do you know if most chain pharmacy's do that?

It's the (unfortunate) standard outside of California.

Nearly all non-California pharmacists are exempt from OT laws, mandated breaks, and other labor perks because you're classified as a "necessary healthcare professional" and therefore exempt.
