"I love working with patients. I see new people every day and I know that I can either make or break their day. Patients or customers always come into my workplace with a frown, knowing that they have to spend hard earned money, or knowing that someone, possibly a family member is hurt. I find it very humbling to know that I can be the person to help that patient smile while going through this issue."

"Absolute worst company I've ever worked for"

"There was not really a single thing company related that I liked."

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

"Go elsewhere, go run, it's not worth the time nor the headache."

What don't you like about working at Walmart?

"The lying, cheating, backstabbing, snooping, spying on you during your personal time away from the job. Lack of communication, lack of an actual Open Door Policy - that's a joke. Management will defend management, and fire you, even if you're not in the wrong. The hiring of inept people as managers. The lack of benefits, how they hire everyone part time so they don't have to pay you benefits, and will work you full time for 2 weeks, and then give you next to no hours for 2 weeks to avoid making you full time."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"To have a manager, they should know how to be a proper manager. One that knows how to make a proper schedule, where one person is not doing all of the work."

Pharmacy Technician at Accredo Health Group

"It Sucks Big TIme"

What do you like about working at Accredo Health Group?

"There is nothing good about this company, Nothing at all"

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

"If they offer you a job, run for the hills as fast as your feet will carry you."

What don't you like about working at Accredo Health Group?

"I work for this company and just so people will know, there is no competence in senior management, they lack any leadership abilities, supervisors are careless, insensitive, and team work is not used at this company. The training department is a complete joke, procedures are always changes and if followed it is still not correct. Working at this company is like walking on sand, always shifting and never steady. The company is a joke, the policies are a joke, and the supervisors are the largest group of knuckle dragging, diaper wearing, self centered mouth breathers I have ever come in contact with. They will tell you they have comprehensive training that is anything but. The managers have no idea what the single trainer is doing or has trained trainees on. You are given an hour of training on a task and pushed out onto your own. CYA is absolutely the necessity with this company. My manager would tell me to do something one day, and then deny she instructed me to do so the next day! Upper management doesn't care what middle management does, as long as the company continues to earn record profits. They treat employees as disposable assets, to be acquired and released as the stock market dictates. If they offer you a job, run for the hills as fast as your feet will carry you."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"They all should be fired, and start again, it would be easier they fixing the problems they have now"
