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

Fellow employees are very friendly.

Cons

Corporate is clueless as to how to run a pharmacy. Management expects you to rearrange your life to accomodate Pharmerica. Thinks an emergency on their part constitutes an emergency on your part. Must be a "yes" man to be on the management's good side.
