Management is the worst. Inexperienced people are often hired and placed in these positions without any idea of true leadership. Nor is the company willing to train a manager to be a better leader. It is a very autocratic atmosphere. The managers push to get maximum efficiency from the workers and do not offer any positive reinforcements when a job is well done. 

They continually boast about being leaders in the field in every meeting and yet there is high turnover (employees and managers alike). There is a glass ceiling. There market shares are less then their competitors.

Human Resources is equally inept. Complaints go unanswered and problems continue. Human Resources is not their to help the employees but only to help the few managers there suppress the front line workers. There is no help form Human Resources.

If you are not part of the popular group you soon find your days so uncomfortable you are forced to leave.

There are some really nice people there, teamwork is good. It has to be to combat the inept managers- (the enemy of my enemy is my friend). On a positive note your first year will be comfortable before the reality of the company sets in.

The reason I have stayed for so long is for the patients. Job satisfaction is high. Our job truly matters to the patients involved. We get help for the most needy, sick and pain-filled of society. 

We are asked to advocate for the patients we have assigned to us, but don't REALLY push for any one patient though. Even if you QUESTION a managers autocratic authority, even to HELP a patient, it will quickly get you out of the popular group (and you could be pushed out altogether). 

It is a building full of young cute employees. If you are not one of these then you will not likely be hired. 

No monetary bonuses are given to a bilingual employee - you get to be on the French phone lines doing extra work then the uni-lingual for no added benefit.

[The mentality of the managerial hierarchy of the entire company is just 'gimme gimme'. For example, to show appreciation to all employees, food trucks were brought in. Employees were expected to pay for their own food... but 'pop' was provided by the company.]

Amerisource in Brooks Ky was an okay place to work. The turnover rate is high. Most of the supervisors and some of the managers did not have prior experience in a supervisor position and have no idea how to interact with associates in a professional manner. Leads are relatively new and were not chosen for skill. They do not have the knowledge to troubleshoot problems and must rely on associates that do. The hours can be horrendous, especially during flu season. If you are a picker on second shift, expect to spend 8 -13 hours in a refrigerator. If you QC, expect to work 8 - 13 hours on a second floor mezz with no air flow and no fans. This company is no different than any other corporation that thinks they can make Fridays Hawaiian shirt day, throw you a chicken bone and some sides and expect you to be grateful that they are so generous, so hip, so cool instead of working on the integrity of the company. Yes, it's one of those bonehead concepts that associates need a spirit committee when all they really want is to be treated with respect. So, if you are looking for an extremely conservative work place with no vision (oh, they will give you a lame vision card to recite for auditors) and a mediocre job with a lot of overtime then this is the company for you.

I started with ABSG over 10 years ago and management treated the employees with trust, provided work- life balance and appreciated their employees. Fast forward 8 years later and management is one of the worst I have seen. Management is chosen based on who is well liked and not on skill set leaving poor treatment of staff, excessive work-load and little appreciation. The culture is extremely competitive and not in a good way, more like "watch your back". This company started so strong and it is so disappointing to see how they treat their employees. Many employees are stressed, ill and lack the lightness they once had.  Very disappointed where things are with this company. Furthermore,  management lacks diversity. In this day and age they need to shake up their management and listen to their employees. 

Decent pay for a nurse in the community, but the expectations to be available 12 hours a day, 5 days a week is unreasonable. Not to mention the home care expectation which can force you into unpaid OT. Good luck getting that banked time off in lieu when you need it to. Staff retention is non-existent due to the ever changing schedule and “business” needs. There are a large number of ways to schedule patients better and provide better scheduling to nursing, but the director of nursing and senior business area manager (BAM) only care about their profit at the end of the day. The company has a long way to go in IT infrastructure and interface. Many of the responsibilities of the BAM’s could easily be taken over with AI to allow them time to be present for their team. 

AmerisourceBergan was certainly one of, if not, the best companies I have worked for. The management in the Calgary office were among the most professional and friendliest that I have had to opportunity to work for. In fact the management to employee relationship felt more like a friendship.

The working conditions were excellent as there was strong encouragement and motivation from all employees from all departments to work hard and have fun making the atmosphere feel more positive.

If not for a company closure resulting in being laid-off I would have certainly continued to advance my career with AmerisourceBergen.

On the phones all day. Patients not always informed about our program prior to the intake call which can cause confusion and upset. I have no idea the purpose of management... they don't do the training, they don't know the job their team does, they aren't helpful or useful 'go to' people. I was blatantly finger pointed for a big error by another department trying to cover their mistake. Even though I had documented proof (recorded calls, emails, time and dates)  I didn't make the mistake AND who DID make the mistake  ....no one seemed to care.  The error wasn't rectified and my name had already been dragged through the mud - the reason I left.  High turn over rate.

the company has high standards for its employees and also remain the highest ethical standards in its business practice. Work environment is professional and equal opportunity exists for anyone regardless of race, ethnicity, culture, age, religion, marital status, sexual orientation. 
Because of its high core standards in ethical practise,  individual personal conduct is expected to be professional at all times, Honesty, integrity, and self disciplinary work ethics is expected. overall, it is a professional work atmosphere environment.

Everyone there is very professional and friendly.  The work day consists of cleaning up the work area, organize and supply the products to the drivers, and receiving products so we can put them on the shelves. Each person has there own job to do but it typically requires teamwork.  I learned  how to scan and ship products.  The hardest part of the job is spending long periods of time in the fridge.  The most enjoyable part of the job is putting away the products onto the shelves.

Every morning we have a meeting with supervisor and they give our assignment and what are we are doing a inventory cycle count or expiry check in the rx  area or fridge area or bulk area, after 3hours you should be stop your doing and you going to lunch. After your lunch you going to picking area .I'm going to fridge are for picking, invoicing and packing.Specially quality control, always check the product you got packed and going to right costumer.
