Pros

Benefits, PTO and profit sharing. Willing to help with any family issues. Mid-level management very receptive to hear what you have to say.

Cons

Overworked, stress is outrageous, end up working too many hours and not getting paid due to salary designation. Upper level management not very trustworthy. Company has changed for the worse after merger/sale with Alliance Boots. CEO good businessman BAD BOSS. Company no longer has best interest of the employees, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY!!!

Pros

You get a lot of technician help and most of the technicians are younger so they are faster and can read small handwriting better. Also centralized data entry and centralized pharmacist data review is VERY helpful (when it works).

Cons

The computer system is the WORST I've ever worked with, and I've worked with several different software systems for several companies throughout college. Very slow and COBs are the worst. Also, if you're a floater, depending on how large your district is, they could be sending you an hour away, and you don't get compensated for the first 50 miles one way. Also, there will be no more raises for pharmacists, so there's that.
