Have to thrive in a fast changing environment

Pros

Fast paced, ever changing, lots of opportunity to step outside of your normal function if you show initiative, HR is good at screening out jerks which means if you're an adult you will rarely come across a mean person. I found that I thrive in this type of environment. It's not for everyone. As a side note my experience has to do with operations. I know nothing about the call center side of the company so don't relate my positives and negatives to that side of the fence. I've heard it's drastically different though.

Cons

If you can't roll with the tide and not let things slide you won't do well. If you like change you will float, if you don't you will drown. After the hiring process HR is pretty much invisible and getting worse. You have to except the fact that they are there for the company and not for you.

Great job

Pros

Good pay, double time and a half during high volume, good benefits, great management-employee relationship. I had no problem communicating with my supervisor, trainer, manager, human resources, etc. Cafeteria had Starbucks coffee, opportunity for advancement. My schedule was perfect, 11AM-8:30PM M-F, paid holidays. You had to choose what you wanted your schedule to be, greatest to least. People who had worked there longer had first choices.

Cons

When I worked there, they changed it to where you were either on calls for most or half the shift, or on faxes. I was easily bored as I was assigned to be on calls most of my shifts unless my supervisor allowed me to switch to faxes. Call volume was low a lot of the time.

Pros

Decent pay to begin with and bonuses are possible. Discount on health benefits for nonsmokers. Overtime available when it's offered. Relaxed dress code.

Cons

Starting out you spend 3-4 weeks in basic training. Learning the history of Express Scripts and basic customer service training. When training is over they pull names out of a hat to determine who goes where. Once on your new team you may be placed with different people who may or may not follow procedure and you're expected to learn from them. You're taught in training about ethics of the company and how the patients and clients are #1 but there are just too many questionable moments that feel like that's not what's really important. There are Supervisors in position who don't seem to know much and can't really assist you properly. Some Team Leaders are more personable and easier to work with than Supervisors. There's no consistency with leadership. The gossiping & cliques among leadership and employees is ridiculous. There are contracted employees who make more money & survive layoffs while permanent employees are kicked to the side. Most team meetings were held for the Supervisor to rant & rave about the negative while positive acknowledgment was null & void. Being an "All In" employee didn't seem to get me very far.
