Cardinal Health reviews

People at the top get paid and the non managers don't even get a bonus at all. There are people here who are managers but they don't manage anyone. They are just managers so they can get a bonus.

Parent company has strong values and culture that are blown off by management. C-Suite people are self-serving and fake. Since acquisition focus has shifted from patient welfare to the bottom line. Life in IT is a circus. Principal managers are egotistical and only care about appearance and regularly throw people under the bus if they feel anyone has tarnished their image. Middle managers are either incompetent yes-men or sleazy and underhanded. Management does not communicate overall IT goals and encourages fiefdoms while discouraging communication and collaboration between silos. PM means well but is toothless. Poor planning regularly covered up by hiring armies of consultants. Consultants work on innovation while FTE's relegated to support or minor roles. Expectation for FTE's to work long hours without comp time or compensation. Weak team spirit. Unabashed favoritism for sycophants and no platform for constructive criticism or proactive contributions. Lack of direction and general retroactive approach to problems the norm. Lip service to career goals provides no clear growth path yet workers held accountable for goals never defined. Career training not provided and self-training discouraged. Disrespect and lack of recognition by management has led to significant attrition of core team. These unacknowledged problems are systemic and will likely cause structural disruptions in 2015. Basically, if you are one of IT management's favorites and can kowtow you will do well here. Long term prospects for consultants are excellent.
