Pros

- Innovative technology in operations - Care about national healthcare cost - Up to par with new pharmaceutical trends, government regulation and drug pricing - Competitive pay in the area

Cons

- Make a lot of serious patient safety issues (Class 1 errors) - Poor processes - some of the processes are questionable with patient safety - Poor documentation - Extremely dull HR and IT practices - Doesn't allow people to move up - I don't see any evidence encouraging lateral moves if your department is restructuring - Senior managements show favoritism and make decisions personally (instead of professionally) - Benefit package is average, but below par compared to other Forbes 100 companies

We’re glad that you find Express Scripts to be an innovative place to work. However, it’s evident from your feedback that we could be better in some areas. Some current changes that are powered by employee feedback like yours include a complete overhaul of our performance management process (eliminating “forced distribution” of talent), streamlining processes and new tools to simplify internal job seeking. If you have not already experienced these meaningful changes, we hope you will soon. Thank you for your feedback and please continuing sharing it with us!

Pros

Great benefits, plenty of PTO, good bonus when you get it. Decent, caring co-workers. Great resume builder for future ex-express scripts careers.

Cons

Forced ranking (calibration) is the worst. Managers have to rank employees 20% Stretch (full bonus, merit increase), 70% Target (smaller bonus, smaller merit), and MUST put 10% at threshold (no bonus, no raise). Even if you're have all excellent performers. You manager must debate your worth against others in your salary level, with other managers who know nothing about you but have a say in your ranking. They dredge up things from years ago to "prove" a person is not worthy. Because of constant mgmt changes, little historical knowledge is retained so these stories get inflated. Lord of the Flies esque. Long hours, little "thanks" from management. Sr managers don't have a clue how the department works. Lots of busy work.
