17 years of the same job but 5 different companies due to mergers/acquisitions, the PharMerica years were the worst.
Pros
Benefits are decent but below average for a company of this size. Majority of non-management employees are great people.
Cons
Wages are below the median across all positions. Raises have been only 1% increase in 3 of last 4 years (0% other year). Company practices a wage limit stop (a.k.a. 'redline') in which your position can no longer receive a raise....ever. Upper management is extremely poor (I never met my VP/Director in 3 years after their appointment to the position). As they continue to lose beds every year, management's plan appears to be to lay off the higher paid/seniority employees in favor of lower paid and overworked persons left. Yearly bonus goals are not presented until half the year is past. Labor laws in my particular state are disregarded (e.g. mileage reimbursement only 0.375 cents/mile vs. IRS mandated 0.55 cents/mile). Recent announcement of loss of largest customer (Kindred leaving for OmniCare) despite Kindred being a major stockholder of PMC says a lot.
