Depends on the site

Depends on the site. Direct management is great, while regional managers dictate what they can do.

Good Company
Pharmacy Tech (Former Employee), Spartanburg, SC – May 13, 2013
Pros: good hours
Cons: being on hold on the phones alot
A typical day at omnicare is being on the phone alot, i got to learn more about how LTC's received their medications for the patients and more about the billing and how insurances pay for different drugs,what medicare and medicaids will cover for different states.I found some great friends in my co-workers at omnicare, we were not just co workers, we – more... were a family and if one of us was hurt we all hurt, I had quit there before my dad passed away, but they still got a couple cards together and sent them to me and had a collection put together me my family,which i thought was just awesome they still did that for me.The hardest part of the job for me was sitting all day, some days it just drove me nuts after i first was hired there, but i got used to it after a while. – less

Horrible place to work
pharmacist (Former Employee), spokane, wa – April 30, 2013
Pros: benefits
Cons: too numerous to list
This is the worst company I have ever seen. There was nepotism all over...husband/wife, father/daughter, father/son, etc. I found this to be very strange. Also, I witnessed favoritism to certain pharmacists and techs which was very obvious. If you don't fit into their mold, you will be treated like a red-headed step-child and you will be driven out. – more... if you do quit, they will fight your unemployment benefits until you are denied. Take it from someone who knows. They did it to me. they will give you an ultimatum to work graveyard shift and train for it for 2 weeks without compensation. This company and it's management is run by satan. – less

Omnicare works you to death
Pharmacy tech (Current Employee), Colorado – April 28, 2013
Pros: it's a job
Cons: the company
This is a great place to work if you are friends with the management or drink with them, seniority or good workers are Never ever recognized, they like the lazy, needy, whiny employees, so many dishonest workers, they come in late then conveniently forget to clock in so that way the boss fixes their time so they don't get a point. The compliance hotline – more... is an even bigger joke, no one takes it serious they tell the person you complain about so then they joke about it for ever . I would never ever use omnicare if someone in my family were in a nursing home. Can't believe they don't end up with a lot of people dying in the homes they provide meds for. Worst workplace environment ever. – less

Where do they find these people?
Pharmacy Tech (Current Employee), ME – April 25, 2013
I have never worked at a more poorly-run pharmacy in my LIFE. The good people and management have all been fired or have quit. The ones who are left are close to retirement, or are unhireable at any other company because they're just too dysfunctional to be in any other workgroup.

WORST JOB I EVER HAD!!!!
Pharmacy Technician (Former Employee), Omaha, NE – April 23, 2013
Cons: working thru lunches, favortism galore!!!!!!!!
EXTREME WORK HOURS. TOO MANY FAMILY MEMBERS WORKING TOGETHER. EXPECTING TOO MUCH OUT OF ONE PERSON. NOBODY STICKS UP FOR WHAT'S RIGHT. PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T DO ANYTHING GOT PROMOTED. PHARMACISTS WOULD KEEP YOU TWO HOURS PAST THE END OF YOUR SHIFT. I NEVER WANT TO WORK LONG TERM CARE EVER AGAIN.

Unorganized Workplace
CPhT (Former Employee), Richmond, VA – April 21, 2013
Pros: room for advancement
Cons: overworked, underpaid, benefits
A typical day at work would be to fill Narcotic medications and match the patient with the prescriptions that has been keyed in. Using the Pyxis machines, we enter the patients name & amount of the medication to take out, which then is set aside for the Pharmacist to review. We maintained communication with the Pharmacist(s) in other areas such as Order – more... Entry, Triage, and the Floor. The hardest part of the job is to fix the inaccuracies and discrepancies so the numbers of inventory would match - ie, someone would key in wrong amount, etc. The co-workers I have worked with has been with Omnicare for a long period of time, and are successful with their jobs. The management of Omnicare, however, lacked organization and does not distribute work load fairly among the employees. The most enjoyable part of the job is at the end of the day, my goals are complete and the patients are receiving their medications in a timely manner. – less

Ruuuunnnnn Away From This Company, Fast !
Office Employee (Former Employee), No Where, Fl – March 17, 2013
Pros: a pay check, going home every day, co workers who were 'real'
Cons: discrimination, favoritism, double standards, unfair, no chance for advancement
Beware people, it's worse than being in the 3rd grade / prison combined, management is up your butt 24/7, watching and waiting to reprimand you about something, anything and I mean 24/7, they never close, you work wkends and holidays, they can also watch you from home when they have the day off. If your one min late, your docked a half a point, then – more... your sent an email and or spoken with about your 'behavior', to many of those, your out even if you do your job and never call in sick. Anything that has to do outside of omnicare, like life, family situations, forget it, how dare you use your cell phone at your desk to retrieve a phone number, that's a crime worse than murder to them. They are a do as I say not as I do place of employment. Don't sell outside stuff in the company or you'll get written up but that seems like it's ok for some and not others to sell what they want without getting in any kind of trouble. I can go on and on, please read some of the other employee / ex employee comments on here, they are not lying, I'm not the only one on here that's had to deal with these situations, I'm outta here at the end of the month ! – less

DLea – March 26, 2013

Management has an "I'm so above you" attitude, always in a bad mood. Management constantly belittles employees in front of other employees, and calls meetings that basically always have a theme of "terminating people" Employees are treated like 5 year olds. Management has "pets" that are allowed to take super-long breaks...Just a bad experience over all...OH! and that rediculous point system, Omnicare will terminate you on the spot if you are (a few minutes late..No matter the reason) just a few times over 6 months....There is one Pharmacist on the evening shift that refuses to help the Technicians, and loves to use his position to belittle others...Omnicare's Corporate office truly needs to pull each employee to the side, so they will know what is actually happening in Panama City.
