      A good place to work

      Pros

      Benefits are good. My personal life is not infringed upon by my job. Management is mostly fair and supportive

      Cons

      Very little opportunity for career growth. MMS is outside of the systems for the rest of the McKesson Corp and our employees have a togh time breaking through into other divisions of the company. (McKesson Drug, Zee Medical, OTN/McKesson Specialty, Moore Medical, etc.)

      Growing Pains

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Originally a startup that was bought out by McKesson. The company has been hugely successfully and has grown greatly over recently years. Even during the recent economic downtown, they have held their course and so far there have been no layoffs. The executive seems to genuinely care about the employees. On a personal level, most people are great to work with.

      Cons

      The huge growth of the company has meant some growing pains. The things that made the small, startup so successful don't scale well in this new environment. In response, many layers of management and bureaucracy seems to have been added. There is increasing distance between the top layers and the worker bees, despite the best of intentions. People are feeling increasingly like cogs in a machine.

      Not bad... would be great with the right top leadership

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great people, great lower and middle management. Opportunities if you work hard and want them. You have your future in your hands - and you can do well. A great industry to be working in right now. McKesson has (could have) a great future.

      Cons

      No clear strategy, lots of acquisitions badly managed making lots of 'silos', very bad senior management execution; it seems that the company has not to date taken the bad news to customers for their own good. McKesson tries to keep single (often loud) customers happy; normally at the expense of their employees and the other customers.
