"Good place to start..."

What do you like about working at Cerner?

"Good first job. You'll gain lots of useful experience. However, be prepared to work some long hours. If you're a hard charger, you can move up the ladder fast."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Best thing is to just be honest and be yourself. Because if you misrepresent yourself, you'll have a miserable relationship with your manager once the job starts."

What don't you like about working at Cerner?

"No work/life balance. Most employees are underpaid. Employee performance reviews are done using the bell curve. It's best to get your feet wet with Cerner and then 2-3 years down the road, use that experience to catapult you to a better job."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Focus more on retaining the talent you've got, instead of thinking everyone is easily replaceable by the next crop of college kids."
