Pros

The pharmacy teams are good and fun people to work with. They care about the patients and not just profits. Good hours.

Cons

Bankruptcy announced today. 3rd CEO change in 6 or 7 years. No women on leadership team now (5 or 6 there a year ago) and only 1 pharmacist on exec team remains. CFO has always been rude. New CEO keeps repeating the same lines about paying your mortgage and having food for your kids and that he is the answer to all the problems because of all his experience. He defines pharmacy as a building that has a license that allows it to sell drugs and if your drug isn't making any money then sell a new drug. Nothing about patient safety, patient care or the power pharmacy staff plays in healthcare. It's only about the $$$$$ and how much him, his team and the lenders will walk away with.

Pros

Lots of opportunity to grow in my role, ability to sell into all fifty states, great coworkers, fair compensation, management is great and I feel valued.

Cons

Start up environment so there is still a lot to figure out, lack of clear policies and processes across pharmacies, lack of appropriate software to operate efficiently, but these things are actively being addressed. Unrealistic growth expectations given the constraints of the pharmacies.
