Pros

daytime hours, atmosphere is mainly stress free, and there are some good hardworking people that are employed there. For the work that you do as a 'lay person', the pay is fair or should I say average.

Cons

for my location not much room for advancement even though there is plenty room for advancement throughout the country if you're willing to relocate

Everyone is waiting to retire or get another job.

Pros

If you have nothing else, and know someone who works there, as long as you don't fail the drug test you WILL get hired. The pay and benefits aren't bad and you get lots of overtime.

Cons

You're required to work overtime half the month, and the other half, they tell you you can't work. The job itself isn't terrible, though it is boring, it's mostly the management that makes it a bad place to work. Senior level executives turn over every couple years, and as a result upper and mid-level management carve out little empires in which they do whatever they want. Managerial communication is nil, the concept of employee morale is actively ignored, and in general, you're treated like a serf.

Long hours! And the on-call can be very stressful!

Pros

Great people to interact with!

Cons

Long-term care pharmacy can be very routine and monotonous, and doesn't allow for a whole lot of clinical advancement, if you are interested in obtaining more clinical experience.
