Pros

Opportunity to learn new systems, procedures and regulations. Great coworkers for me personally. Good pay. Great for getting experience and gaining knowledge to further your career.

Cons

Terribly ran, poor management decisions, lack of communication between departments and as an organization. Lack of training. Very few standardized processes which then requires you to follow a different set of procedures for each client or medicine leading to a ton of deviations and corrections. No care for the employees work life balance or well being. Several safety and compliance issues. Asked to perform tasks outside of the scope of your training consistently. Several shift restructures within a couple years time. I’ve had 7 supervisors in 3 years. Management and directors are never on the floor and have no idea what is going on or how our processes work. Unattainable goals and expectations to produce medication. Regularly pressured to cut corners, ignore safety concerns and rush work to get jobs out. Main concern of this company is money. Morale is very low at this point. Completely makes sense that this company is being bought out

The team is incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive, which has made it easy to learn and feel comfortable asking questions. There is a strong focus on training and collaboration, helping me feel safe, well prepared, and confident in my role. I also appreciate the benefits, which support a good work-life balance.

One area for improvement is the flexibility for new employees regarding remote work hours.

Pros

PTO (if you could actually use it) is top tier

Cons

Don’t even know where to begin. Understaffed like you couldn’t believe. Unrealistic expectations for workload. Micromanagement to another level. Work life balance doesn’t exist. If you bring it up you’ll be told “that’s just the job”
