Pros

I found the people at McKesson to be smart and easy to work with. In general folks are very eager to help fellow employees and customers.

Cons

McKesson needs to consolidate layoff actions and limit them to no more than once per year. Due to the way they are dribbled out now, employees stay in constant fear of losing their jobs.

Pros

Competitive benefits. Employee stock purchase plan. Excellent review processes and feedback loop. McKesson is a true leader in the healthcare industry. The senior leadership is very bright and experienced. During the recession when many companies were laying off employees, McKesson was investing in employees. Very informal style of leadership.

Cons

The building is old and depressing. There is plenty of space for an on-site fitness facility but they will not install one. There is very little training for potential leaders.
