Pros

Small work environment, flexible schedules. Genuinely kind staff. Pharmacists are nice.

Cons

The pay for the responsibility do not match. Yes it could considered 'entry level' but for working side by side with pharmacists that make 5 times than the rest of us. Also the weekends are horrible. Most facilities that are contracted are not slated to even get business on a Sunday. Yet with minimal staff, we are pushed to get what would be done during the normal work week days into a shorter period. And the Pharmacists are salary and always looking to close the doors early. Giving the hourly employees on the average one half hour less each day. Also obvious cliques, good luck if you do not fit in they will try and push you out. And don't dare speak about any gripes you might have with another employee. You could loose your job, there is zero confidence in the workplace. What was once fun turned into a nightmare with over reaching by the management.

Pros

Treat their employees very well. Good overall benefit package.

Cons

Changed PTO policy after I started and I lost PTO hours that I had been promised at hire. Lots of meetings that could be emails.

Pros

One of the things that interests me most about PharMerica is the opportunity to support patients in long-term care settings while continuing to grow professionally. I appreciate that the company offers career development opportunities, educational support, and the chance to make a meaningful impact on patient care. With my background in pharmacy and customer service, I believe I can contribute to providing accurate, compassionate service while continuing to learn and grow within the organization.

Cons

Some employees have reported challenges with management communication or consistency in leadership styles. As with many large organizations, experiences can vary by location and department. Having clear communication and a supportive manager can make a significant difference in the work
