Pros

Great training program. Starting salary was great at the time I started my position in the company. More of a family atmosphere in the company. Managers and Supervisors and other higher ups were very accessible. Taking calls for the Medicare side,

Cons

I wasn't a fan of the time off policies, where all vacation and sick time is rolled into one. Part of the reason I left was due to the fact that I felt I could not advance. There is room for advancement within the company, don't get me wrong, but certain departments would not even grant me an interview, even though I received good reviews for my work in my primary department, and other projects I were assigned to. It felt like to advance, you had to be chummy with certain people higher up. When I did advance, the position was phased out months later. The health insurance benefits were ok at best overall. High deductible health plan. Paying out of pocket for prescriptions. There were times where Customer Service Reps received additional duties without any additional compensation for their work.

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.
