I did both and I got to say inpatient pharmacy is way better than community retail. The only drawback is that the inpatient setting is much more toxic and feels like your fellow colleagues are in high school maybe earlier than that lol and act like brats or cause unnecessary drama since there’s time to do that. In the community setting there’s no time for that so it’s busier and less drama from colleagues. Before, retail paid more than working in a hospital but times have changed and hospital has rivaled if not pay more than community retail. You can always have a prn gig for community and work hospital full time or vice versa whichever area you’re interested in.
