Pros

Great benefits, great people, and a very nice work/life balance makes this a great place to work if you just want a good jobs that gives you a paycheck and great benefits. Also, they rarely make formal lay-offs, and when they do, they are pretty good about finding you another place to work within the company.

Cons

Very beareucratic and structured. Very large company where career / professional development is limited. A lot of times it feels like a government job. In my experiences, they dont really promote internally for senior management positions, but rather bring people in from other large companies.

Pros

1) Exposure to health systems of all sizes and business types (not for profit, for profit, multi-site, standalone, etc). 2) Senior executives are approachable and have the interests of McKesson's clients as a top priority 3) Collaborative work environment that allows personnel from different business units to approach one another for assistance as needed 4) Excellent on-line product tutorials for employees who are willing to put time and effort into learning about products.

Cons

1) Mid-level resource managers require more training and mentoring 2) Little opportunity to recoup time lost to work-life imbalance (manager dependent) 3) Technical support for employees facing computer problems is abysmal and has not improved despite management perception that it is good.
