Pros

Nothing too much. You can wear jeans.

Cons

Stressful job, Low pay for what you have to do and deal with. 45 min. Lunch. 2 10min breaks. Management is horrible. Extreme favoritism. If you are not liked you are basically hated. No room for growth. Pay is $15 an hour starting and hours are 10:15 am to 7:00pm. Pay and environment is NOT WORTH YOUR TIME. Easy to get fired with ALL THEIR RULES. You will be taking 60-80 calls a day. See ratings for Edgepark Medical(customers reviews) because that's who you really will be working for not Cardinal Health. Training is RUSHED AND TRAINING IS NOT GOOD. THEY THROW YOU OUT ON THE FLOOR. AND ITS SINK OR SWIM. Starting pay should be $20 an hour!!!!!!

Pros

You are supporting life sustaining and health improvement solutions for people worldwide. Cardinal's output help people and are a benefit to people's quality of life. From a career standpoint, it's a huge company and if you get your foot in the door, you have a lot of opportunities to expand your 'base' and work in a lot of areas of the company; movement around to various roles is encouraged.

Cons

Cardinal's business model is 10 years behind the rest of the world, they talk about being agile and innovative, but I did not see in their acquisitions. They continue to expand into areas that people need, but they are far from cutting edge. For example, the Medtronic acquisition expanded a lot of offerings, but was big and messy and hurt the bottom line. They should look to growing in some of the more modern healthcare spaced; telehealth, self-driven home health, etc. The benefits are also slowly degrading, for a company that is in the Fortune 20, the insurance is 'eh' and while they started to offer telework and options to improve work life balance, a lot of those benefits were repealed once the stock and earnings dipped.
