Collapsing quickly

Pharmacy Managers, Pharmacists, quality MGRs, and skilled techs, all accelerating their path OUT.

Requisitions sit empty and the few qualified candidates are backing out of offers.

Sycamore has officially crossed the point of no return. They had their chance to target their highest rated people and offer retention money, but no, they'd rather give it to somebody new.

Increasing salary ranges and sign on bonuses aren't enough anymore to save this catastrophic experiment of private equity and pharmacy.

The damage has been done with the cuts and lost trust.

This fall through holiday season will be the a horror show and Sycamore knows it.

The examples?

Sudden ramp up hours after months of historic cuts to techs and staff (too late, they already quit and left to get more consistent jobs).

Change in bonus policy. Now bonus eligible positions need to stay employed until November payout to receive compensation. Several months passed the end of the fiscal year. (The legality of this is being reviewed)


What positions were effected today?

I'm hearing some HCS were laid off today. Loads of DM. Any other roles?

Biggest surprise for me was the HCS, we can't keep our pharmacy open, but they fired the pharmacists? Our HCS used to be my pharmacy manager and she was one of the best pharmacists I've ever worked for. Why wouldn't they offer a step down? Same for DM, there are SM positions open.

This company is burning down. Get out while you can.


Mail order

Mouser said there is a 25% referral requirement. Requirements that are completely legal and not going anywhere. SNP departments have to refer to humana owned pharmacy. They encourage push back and aggressive sales tactics are rewarded.


January?

Trying to ease the anxiety over here - good to know what's down the road for us. No way Deerfield can handle the OPO overflow. Parking lot is full most days. Earlier someone posted expected layoffs of 400 in January. Does anyone have any updates on this. Still January, or sooner/later? And first week of January, or later in the month? What's the pattern with previous layoff timing?


Forcing Centerwell Mail order pharmacy

The robotic and daily repetitive nature of pushing Centerwell Pharmacy enrollment and the talking points is abnormal. If I didn’t know better, I would think Blagg was AI. The only response is a blank face and talking points. Daily call back delays. But wait! Talking points! Emails every day -talking points. Meetings to repeat you guessed it talking points. All the talking points in the world will not fix that CW pharmacy su-ks A-S and no one wants to use it. Why not eliminate it and save that money instead of spouting some bs that it prevents hospitalizations. PDMRs prevent hospitalizations. Not inept mail order pharmacies.
