Pros

Company has great programs for Medicare members Seem to really want to help members Some great managers if lucky Friendly people Remote, Office, and Hybrid work options Response to covid was fast and well managed Small donation match Paid volunteer time off HSA

Cons

No room to grow. No support or opportunity for professional training conferences or courses. Managers give negative feedback and drain confidence. Pay is bad lower than market. Rare acknowledgement of hard work. Work late and through weekends. No thanks. Managers favor some employees and they get constant recognition and praise. Get most projects where noticed and favorable. Other hard workers never acknowledged. People will throw you under the bus and not take any responsibility. Managers look the other way and don't support others. Constantly changing managers, directors responsibilities and no consistency. No transparency. Poor communication. Do not practice company values. High deductible plans, expensive. Employee support area and HR is outsourced and unhelpful and give wrong information. No career path. Don't provide compensation for any office stuff Outsourced IT. So many people hard to understand or don't know IT

Pros

Flexible shift schedule if you can maintain changing standards that have to be met to qualify; work at home remote and no phone calls for the screening RPhs

Cons

This applies to all 4 pharmacy sites in Arizona, Texas, Ohio, and Florida: standards change constantly for what is accepted rate for production and missing errors (from MD office, tech entry, etc). Everything is about rate, rate, rate, yet you get majorly dinged for quality. Which of course we all want 100% perfect Rxs and no errors, but the rate continues to climb as RPhs practically just click the mouse to move an rx, taking safety shortcuts which are risky, and playing fast and loose with professional judgment allowances. These were not as allowed prior to Amazon, but once you have a company like that competing with you, patients expect everything in 24 hours and we're left to hang if we don't go faster and faster and stop worrying about what the MD actually wanted for example. You are penalized for questioning anything you think is wrong. Certain RPhs get picked to judge if your reasoning for clarifying is sound or not. Doctor leaves out directions frequency, just make it up, that's fine. No, that's prescribing and that's illegal. The Boards of Pharmacy and Medicine might want to look into this. I know one state did about 5 years ago due to an anonymous tip from a colleague.
