Pros

Good if you need lots of mental stimulation

Understaffed and lack of overall training available, will be expected to work long hours and overtime. I averaged 60 hour weeks

Our employees are very important to us, and without them, we could not provide the quality care that our clients need. Thank you for your time with us and for the work that you did for our clients!

Pros

Steady work with decent team players. Schedule is consistent with opportunities for overtime. Online competencies are very detailed and helpful. Work/life balance is ok considering the volatile fluctuations in work flow.

Cons

401K has not been matched since COVID. Little to no communication about merit increase. Corporate base their expectations and staffing on analytics that do not necessarily translate to real time.

PharMerica Response

Hi, we strive to ensure that no employee has issues being paid for the amazing work they do. Please reach out to cashdisbursementhelpdesk@brightspringhealth.com.

Pros

The local team is great. The corp team has ghosted us

Cons

No raise in years. No mention of raises in your review NO 401k MATCH. Max you can contribute per year to 401k is <3% since they never qualify since they won't offer safe harbor plans Healthcare insurance is a joke. No provider takes it or understands it (even if they call to help you) and we are a HEALTH CARE COMPANY.
