Meaningful work with a supportive team, but resource challenges exist - Commercial/Procurement Manager Empower Pharmacy Employee Review

A few things I'd tell anyone considering Empower: We're AI- and innovation-forward, so things move quickly and actually get done. We're early enough that you get to design the foundation, not inherit someone else's. And the mission is real — everyone supports getting patients access to affordable medicine, and the care for that mission is evident in everything we do. Fast, foundational, mission-driven, and team forward.

Fast pace and a still-being-built foundation cut both ways: priorities shift quickly, some processes and tools are still maturing, and there's more ambiguity and manual work than at an established company. It's a strong fit if you're energized by building and comfortable with change — a harder one if you want everything structured and settled on day one.

What keeps me at Empower is the opportunity to grow, lead, and be part of work that actually matters. In my role, I’ve been able to help build stronger teams, improve processes, support accountability, and contribute to operations that directly impact patient care. Empower is fast-paced, and like any growing company, there are challenges. But that’s also what creates opportunity. If you’re someone who wants to take ownership, learn, lead, and make a real impact, this is a place where you can do that. I also appreciate the focus on employee wellness, including perks like free compounded medication, which is a great benefit. What I’d want someone considering Empower to know is this: come ready to work hard, grow, and be part of something bigger than yourself. There’s a lot of opportunity here for people who want to make a difference.

Nothing stands out as a con from my personal experience
