Swedish Edmonds Pharmacy; small hospital, BIG disappointment!
Pros
The location eliminated my commute. The insurance benefits are great. The training at the First Hill campus was very helpful. You definitely notice a difference in that First Hill is a lot more organized, supportive, positive, and welcoming than Edmonds.
Cons
The environment is not conducive to learning, questions are not encouraged and are viewed as if you are challenging their processes. There are very few reference materials, especially in the way of expiration dating. There are difficult personalities and you'll feel caught in the middle of their varying opinions and power struggles. The lack of teamwork between the evening and night shifts was like nothing I've ever seen before. The conflicting information from co-workers and management will leave you extremely frustrated. Don't expect any support from leadership. Your concerns will not be addressed. They would rather terminate you.
