Pros

LTC pharmacy is a good setting to work in as a pharmacist. Less stressful than retail pharmacy; provides a closed-door environment. Managers (locally) willing to accommodate scheduling needs within reason.

Cons

-Many of our pharmacy technicians, and some pharmacists, have had no pay raises in several consecutive years, while managers are eligible for bonuses. -There are little to no incentives to work for PharMerica beyond the bare minimum (paid time off, paid holidays, etc). -Extremely strict attendance policy. -Constant pressure to do more work in less time, and with fewer employees. -Poor IT support. -Unrealistic expectations from middle/upper management regarding productivity versus providing quality work. -Supervisors are unwilling to help on the floor when needed; staff are left to deal with out of control work load, especially in the evening hours.

Pros

None that I know of

Cons

Hostile, harrassing, discriminating workplace, very dirty, not cleaned often, trash not emptied regulary, there are bugs everywhere, massive amounts of dirt, dust and pills on the shelves and floors, pills are reused even if dropped in trash or on floors, dirty equipment stored/cleaned with clean inventory, negative gossip, verbal attacks on coworkers, a manager who knows all this but hates the company as well, he is always putting down his managers and the company to the workforce, I think that if you are a technician or pharmacist and nearing retirement you could come here and hang out, do nothing till you retire making othes miserable and disliking you.
