Polaris Pharmacy Services Reviews

Pros

Management works with you and honest.

Cons

only paid twice a month not every two weeks

Pros

Decent pay. Good PTO accrual rate. More than a few genuinely nice, smart and talented people, including some of the most gifted pharmacists that I’ve ever met. Closed door pharmacy, no public interaction.

Cons

Abysmal communication. Total lack of accountability. A small crew of reliable workhorse employees are expected to change their schedules last minute or come in on their days off to cover for others who consistently don’t pull their weight. Working women who also start families are viewed as undesirable and rarely return from maternity leave. Unsafe, hostile work environment. Coworkers will show up drunk and yell or curse at you or arrive more than an hour late or spend the first half hour of their shift on their cell phone with their significant other. If you complain about it, that person will get promoted supposedly so that mgmt can monitor them more closely-but it sends a terrible message that bad behavior gets you ahead. People make openly racist and homophobic jokes at work; nothing is done even though there are cameras and microphones everywhere. HR is openly hostile. Come to them with a small issue and they will scold you for bothering them. Nothing will be addressed until higher ups force their hand. Upper management is AWFUL. Blatant favoritism, terrible communication, lack of forethought before implementing major policy changes. It will fall to the burnt out workhorses to clean up the aftermath. Loyalty and dedication mean little to nothing. Lead and management roles are filled by hiring people in from outside. If you make it known that you’re looking for growth and want to move up, it seems to count against you and you may be deliberately held back. Extremely high deductible health insurance. No 401k match. You have to fight to be able to actually use your PTO. Managers will forget that they approved your request months ago, schedule you, and then have to rewrite the schedule for everyone. This will be used to make you feel like you are being entitled or a burden for taking time off that you EARNED. Little to know acknowledgment of the long hours and extra work put in by employees who worked though COVID.

Pros

Pay, benefits, great regular employees

Cons

Upper Management could care less about the employees. CEO micromanages everything, but is too consumed with greed to actually care about the employees or what is actually going on.

Pros

You would think with how well they setup their cookie cutter pharmacies that they would be able to handle employees. But this is really the wild west. Just treat their employees like scum and the place is a magnet for drama and turnover.

Cons

The corruption, greed, and toxicity stems from Florida.

Pros

Overtime brings in the money

Cons

The managers believed In no social life outside of work….

Pros

Remote job ease of transportation.

Cons

Everything else. Micromanagement who aren't prioritizing the facilities or listening to anything the techs are telling them; or communicating anything to techs outside of belittling them when they attempt to do the right things per laws and patients

Pros

Good environment to work with other healthcare professions to address and resolve issues

Cons

The workflow is very fast paced, resulting in very busy little downtime

Pros

Closed door pharmacy More casual environment High volume so there is always work to be done Managers are working managers, not just in offices.

Cons

No holiday incentive pay and don’t get off unless you use PTO hours Insurance isn’t great Twice monthly pay but not always on the same day/date

Pros

Always busy but great people. Best clinical pharmacist I ever met works in the IV DEPT. It’s a collaboration of professionals doing their best for their patients.

Cons

No 401k, paid only twice a month versus bi-weekly, poor insurance.

Pros

flexible schedule, decent break room

Cons

Very bad pay, boring, disorganized. High insurance premium, eats up a great deal of pay!
