McKesson Canada Reviews in Vancouver, BC Area

Pros

large customer base, possibility of long term employment

Cons

Technically incompetent management, people not treated with respect, valuated based on how
they report instead of real technical contribution and achievements. If want to experience the Dilbert's corporate world a live than that's the place to be. A good place to prosper for mediocre
engineer good at writing nice reports, but if you are not like that you will struggle to both deliver and
and somehow satisfy internal nonsensical bureaucratic requirements, you will be the last one to take a credit for your hard work and the first one to blame.

Advice to Senior Management

Get real, your software is done by people writing the software and not by the people speaking about how to write the software. Give the credit to people who do actual work for you.

Pros

Stability, perks of big company. Good fellow employees, interesting work. Better than the competition in the medical imaging field.

Cons

You will be a small employee in big company, all good positions taken by boomers. No parking spots. No bonuses. Minimal salary increases. Upper management keeps shuffling themselves positions in a matrix style manner, announcing a new director or manager every single week. There is roughly one project manager per developer, they argue and fight over the engineers. Project managers come and go as they are regularly fired for incompetence. The power is held at the director level. Title of manager means 'secretary'.

Advice to Senior Management

When you promote mediocrity, you get it.

Cons

Very little potential in career growth and development

Advice to Senior Management

Don't get stuck in the 80's. Appreciate your employees effort better.
