Cardinal Health Reviews

Pros

It's healthcare - it's stable in a tough economy. The company is growing even in a bad economy. The benefits are good, the pay is fair, there's a very good reputation of this company in the industry.

Cons

Not many opportunities for promotion, especially if you're located in the field away from the corporate HQ. Professional development really depends on your direct leader.

Advice to Senior Management

There is minimal presence and a disconnect of senior leaders to the field. I would urge senior leaders to go more to the place of the work, see for themselves, and build relationships and a presence.

Pros

Solid compensation and moderate focus on maintaining work-life balance.

Cons

Boring work environment and lack of an inspirational goal or vision. If you simply want to work your 8 hours and go home without trying to make a real difference in life, not a bad option.

Pros

Company makes a lot of money

Cons

Narrow minded leadership - lacking in actual leadership skills

Advice to Senior Management

Train leaders to lead - value diversity
