Pros

There are no pros from my experience.

Cons

Heavy workload. Branches are catty. Treat people like numbers instead of people. Benefits are terrible. I was interviewed for one position, offered a different position and had to complete another application, and given another completely different position on my first day. The health benefits are expensive and the coverage is sub par. There is constant work for an ACO (obtaining authorizations, reconciling reports, calling patients, entering new services, updating services, verifying insurance, constant email chatter) and you essentially are doing four different jobs under one title. No one is cross trained for branches so if you are out, there is no coverage. The branch managers are incredibly rude. Management and Supervisors offer very little to no assistance and will not back you up. Office is understaffed in regular employees and overstaffed in Management. They do not foster growth. Only recently have they begun to develop actual training, no training for new hires beyond shadowing a current employee (so if that employee has bad habits or does something incorrectly, you'll pick up those bad habits as well) and are essentially set up to fail. They tout flexible hours, but there is no flexibility. Not enough redundancies in place to ensure coverage when someone is out of the office.

Pros

A lot of nice people in the place.

Cons

Unfair workplace, plays favorites and almost impossible to move up if you're not in with the bosses. A lot of the bosses are also very condescending especially the one one in medical records.

Pros

Overtime is pretty much guaranteed, and freely given out. You get to work with some of the best compounding technicians in the business. You are constantly learning new things.

Cons

Cleaning. For hours. Every day...every week, and every month. Clean enough to eat off the floor and ceiling. Long hours, not always time for breaks. Must stay until last order is compounded, and everything has been cleaned to Federal standards. Can become lonely, just you inside your hood, especially on weekends when there is only 1 technician on. Management can be pushy, expecting compounds and cleaning to get done in unrealistic time frames, mostly those whom have never done either before and don't know the process.
