Pros

I enjoyed my coworkers, a lot of people trying to do a good job. The pay is good enough - not superior. Great technology in the pill fill area and cutting costs. Work was challenging and there is a lot to do. I think the company tries to be a good employer but managers listen to consultants and themselves and not the people in the trenches so their efforts are not as effective.

Cons

Horrible work live balance - so bad they stopped using to term around me. In many cases GE forced rankings are politically decided and then annual reviews are made to fit the rating which I find dishonest and unfair. Very poor investment in people and software technology. Could be move effective if they had better feedback loops like chargeback on infrastructure and invested in software technology - better tools, current tools at a reasonable release - rather than changing after software goes off support. Their cost saving plans hurt some patients, including me. They should give doctors more control over the care of patients and not squeeze as much out of stingy pharmacy benefits so they can make higher profits. Managers tend to live in ivory towers and look down on and disregard the workes.

Sad place to work.

Pros

Nothing really good to say here. I'm originally a Medco employee. Everything was good then. The company is slowly draining my soul!

Cons

Most of the good supervisor quit. The company is all about quantity rather than quality...trying to please share holders.

Happy to get Laid Off

Pros

Work at home is an option. Some great people really do work there. I get a package for leaving. Made me happy.

Cons

No work life balance. It feels like a gang war between ESI and Medco employees. They protect the people who used to work with them at their previous company whether they are qualified or not. Project managers are more like analysts in some departments. Director wasted people's time with dumb assignments that added no value to the company. Why would project managers be listening to 50 calls a day? Where they do that at? Express Scripts. Client needs are not the priority. Members are suffering due to inept processes that people either don't know how to fix or too prideful to fix since it was supposed to be a perfect system. New system is so flawed and so inflexible, it's pathetic. Expect you to work a ridiculous amount of hours with not even a thank you.
