Pros

+Company understands that working as an analyst here is repetitive and boring, and pay is low. So they are constantly attempting to incentivize work though a great set of perks: - On-site gym. - Decent benefits (401k matching, health/vision/dental, employee discounts) -Contests all the time with gift cards, prizes, etc.) -Casual dress +*Potential* for advancement, regardless of education. +Flexible schedules.

Cons

+The pay is awful considering the amount and degree of difficulty of work done. +Despite the potential for advancement, competition for advancement opportunities are stiff. +Very specialized and difficult work may turn some off initially.

Pros

Interesting work: nobody hears this job title without a little curiosity Independent: once you're trained you're mostly given tasks and allowed to work whatever way best suits your needs Unique: you won't find another job that does exactly this in the area Benefits: pretty standard, but kick in on day 1 Growing field: by all appearances, this is a growing field in pharmacy, so job stability isn't an issue Management: Leadership at this location strives to make this a good place to work

Cons

The hours: most technicians will work from 2:30-10 AM. The pay: rate is decent, a little less than hospital rates, a little more than retail, but in general you will be capped at 35 hours a week. Independence: while there is a lot to say about the benefits of working on your tasks alone, there is also little in the way of any real supervision. This means that all interpersonal issues devolve into a one employee's word against another, leaving management reluctant to act. Management: Leadership at this location does its best to make this a good environment to work, but they do it at the expense of holding employees accountable.
