Express Scripts reviews

Pay is average. There is no personal growth; instead there is a marked personal decline. Many employees have resorted to taking antidepressants just to make it through the day. Training is provided for new duties of the job, but not to improve the employees' overall skills. Cut-throat environment; job loss is a constant threat. Anyone who complains to upper management gets a target on their back. Pharmacists are forced to review prescriptions so fast, it is not safe for the patients. Most leave due to fear of harming the patients and because they are afraid they will lose their license due to a mistake. Very stressful, and at the same time very boring and sedentary work. Many carpal tunnel syndrome and neuralgia problems from sitting in the same chair all day long, with two 15 minute breaks and 30 minutes for lunch. Lots of eye problems and headaches from computer screens. No job satisfaction. Not a good idea unless you can't find anyplace else to work.

Worked for Medco for 5 years; ESI for 2 years, in two years I lost over $10,000 a year in bonuses; Lost working for a company which was customer service driven to one which is bottom line compulsive. Lost empowerment with performing my job with the dedication and integrity which is important to me to one who micromanages; stats are the rule of the day; not customer satisfaction. Went from an environment with opportunity and stability to chaos, discontent and toxic environment. Then they closed and laid off everyone at the Medco site which I was working.
