Pros

Pretty good technology and technical support for employees. Some good wellness programs. Pretty good work/life balance.

Cons

A high performer who proved themselves year after year and was never given an opportunity to advance. They offer good benefits but the rates increased significantly year over year and Humana did little to cover any of the expense. Compensation, unless you're in management, is significantly below industry standard. Turnover is high and they do nothing about it. Management consistently hires candidates that are a poor fit and do not have the skills necessary to do the job. They do very little to keep their hourly employees engaged. It's definitely a "good old boys" club.

Pros

Flexible shift schedule if you can maintain changing standards that have to be met to qualify; work at home remote and no phone calls for the screening RPhs

Cons

This applies to all 4 pharmacy sites in Arizona, Texas, Ohio, and Florida: standards change constantly for what is accepted rate for production and missing errors (from MD office, tech entry, etc). Everything is about rate, rate, rate, yet you get majorly dinged for quality. Which of course we all want 100% perfect Rxs and no errors, but the rate continues to climb as RPhs practically just click the mouse to move an rx, taking safety shortcuts which are risky, and playing fast and loose with professional judgment allowances. These were not as allowed prior to Amazon, but once you have a company like that competing with you, patients expect everything in 24 hours and we're left to hang if we don't go faster and faster and stop worrying about what the MD actually wanted for example. You are penalized for questioning anything you think is wrong. Certain RPhs get picked to judge if your reasoning for clarifying is sound or not. Doctor leaves out directions frequency, just make it up, that's fine. No, that's prescribing and that's illegal. The Boards of Pharmacy and Medicine might want to look into this. I know one state did about 5 years ago due to an anonymous tip from a colleague.
