Pros

When I was an employee, you were able to plug in your headphones and get lost in your work. If you prefer to work individually, this is the place for you. Pay and benefits were also great comparatively. I was started at $13/hr with 3 years of CNA experience, 0 experience in maintaining medical records. Ending hourly rate was $13.65 after 2. Floor/ group supervisors were generally easy to communicate and work with. Extensive, month long training class that leaves you well- prepared to work on your own. Cubical environment with semi- private, individual work stations.

Cons

Strict attendance policy based on a 10 point system; which may make things hard on parents, those with chronic medical conditions, or who experience a short-term tragedy while employed with this company. When new ownership took over in 2012ish, many great employees (20+) were lost over the course of months due to sudden, restrictive policies that they were not hired in under. Clocking in was done on a booted computer, which could result in a "tardy" if the computer you were attempting to clock in on experienced trouble booting. Too many facilities (10-13) placed on one individual at a time. As a result, "Print Week" was always a chaotic and stressful race against the clock within each group.

What stands out most is the organization’s clear commitment to improving long-term care pharmacy services—not just operationally, but in how care is delivered to patients. There is a strong focus on quality, patient safety, and continuous improvement, which makes the work both meaningful and impactful. Leadership is engaged and forward-thinking, with a genuine emphasis on building strong teams and empowering individuals to contribute. I’ve especially appreciated the collaborative environment and the ability to make a real difference while helping shape processes and outcomes. PharMerica is also investing in its people—creating opportunities for growth, development, and innovation across roles. For anyone looking to be part of a team that is evolving, values accountability, and is focused on delivering better care, this is a great place to build a career. Overall, a dynamic and purpose-driven organization with a strong future ahead.

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
