Pros

Descent, competitive benefits, nice perks like work out facility, coffee shop, 2 cafes to eat, credit union, drug store and drs on hand

Cons

age discrimination; I've applied for over 40 positions in the past year; I've gotten the privildge of pulling in about 15 interviews but didn't get any of the jobs. No real, concrete feedback on why I did not get jobs when asked. People interviewing me were early 30's and I feel like they didn't see how I could "fit in". I did well in the interviews, reciting problem senerios, the impact and how I solved them. Some jobs I had solid, seasoned experience....but did not get the job. It's too bad; I was hoping to grow and stay but I'm giving up. Been there five years. Management team can be very inexperienced and it results in "everything being urgent" cause they are so busy making a name for themselves. And, if you don't communicate that you want to grow towards being a CEO (little exaggeration here), then they won't want you. No such thing as a seasoned employee with excellent work ethics just coming in to do a great job and going home.

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.
