Pros

Great company when it was CHD Meridian. CHD Meridian probably would have ceased to exist without Walgreens capital. Walgreens employee benefits

Cons

Witnessed a supervisor lie about a fellow worker, solely, to get that worker fired. The HR person, who bragged about being a Christian, didn't act very Christian-like, in allowing this evil person to ruin a hard, loyal, honest and devoted worker for over 3 years. This person worked for a dedicated client and was not allowed to contact that client for feedback, or HR deemed that a "firable offense." I thought feedback from your customers was a good thing.

Pros

Start up primary care clinic within a busy semiconductor plant. Fabulous idea. Reminded me of daycare at work. Very progressive and worker/patient focused. Recruiters did an amazing job picking staff. Except for two failures, they were the best group I've ever worked with in a clinical setting. Good salary and benefits.

Cons

That said, the company itself is unable to maintain focus on the mission. It became very obvious profit was the point. Yeah, that's business. As a healthcare provider though, I have enough to do to keep abreast of health, wellness, disease, medications etc. Weekly meetings emails etc about billing and rare meetings about healthcare ended my stay after 8 months. Additionally, the most awkward and time consuming EMR, Primesuite, added ridiculous burden to patient visits. Not because of the patient data. This system can automate billing. In order to do that, EVERYTHING that affects billing had to be made a data point that could be manipulated. Nice idea in theory. In actuality, Takecare made no move to support staff to take those clickable items match the reality and workflow of a disease management standard or a patient visit. Hence all those meeting to go over billing "errors."
