Pros

name recognition of fortune 500 company, that's it

Cons

too many people in all levels of the company that have attained their position through politics and not through performance or results. There are many people in the company that are "the only one that can do what they do" because people horde information as if it were the ring of power. It is impossible to run effective projects there due to the sheer incompetence of Humana associates. For the most part, I have rarely seen anyone in the company follow prescribed PMI project methodology.

Pros

Work from home and 401k benefit match is over 100% but no match during the first year.

Cons

This company exemplifies toxic workplaces that exploit an oversupply of pharmacists, ultimately harming our profession. They pay flex pharmacists less than $50 an hour and monitor every minute of their activities, showing no trust or respect for them. Only 5-10% of employees survive the VSP pool, and even full-time hires are fired if they fail to meet metrics a few times. During my time as a full-time employee, I never received health insurance through Humana because I constantly feared losing my job. Policies change every month, and the new OneNote updates are easily missed if you're unaware of them. Their poor utilization of technology is frustrating, and management is too incompetent to make improvements that could save tens of thousands of dollars. Avoid applying for this job, as companies like this are what’s killing our profession and devaluing pharmacists.

Pros

Awesome employee benefits, I would say top 5 in the area of Louisville, at least. When you find the right team, it can feel like family. Big enough that you can move around if you don't like the area that you're in.

Cons

Although there seem to be many job postings, I have found it very difficult to be able to move. It seems like these jobs are often determined before you have a chance to prove yourself. Posting is likely a formality for HR. Consistent layoffs within 4 years of being here make the environment feel really unstable. It has put a bad taste in my mouth as a young graduate. The idea of staying with a company the way your parents did seems almost impossible.
