Careers at Express Scripts
Employee Stories
Isaac B., Employee Since 2006, Clinical Program Manager - Commercial Division
St. Louis, Missouri
His Role at Express Scripts
"In a complex business, you could sum up what I do in one word — consulting. I work with the account management team to help clients control costs, and strengthen disease management and prescription drug safety initiatives. I also serve on the Emerging Therapeutics Committee."
His Career
"Working at Express Scripts has added infinite value to my career. Being a part of a market leader like Express Script has vastly increased my knowledge. I know that the sky is the limit."
The Culture at Express Scripts
"I would describe the culture as fast paced, constantly evolving, friendly and engaging. In a business that is traditionally scrutinized for a lack of ethical practices, I feel that the culture at Express Scripts is very ethical."
How Express Scripts Differs from Other Companies
"Working here is different because we specifically align our success with the clients’ success.
A lot of companies push profits first and clients second — not at Express Scripts."
Ann S., Employee Since 2004, Drug File Supervisor
Tempe, Arizona
Her Role at Express Scripts
"I run the drug file for our Tempe, Ariz. location. The drug file is the list of drugs that data entry, verification and fulfillment, use when filling prescriptions. We work on any change that occurs with a drug such as, backorders, new formulations or name changes."
"Since all of my previous experience was in retail, I never considered mail order. However, when this opportunity on the patient consultation team became available, I was very excited. The atmosphere and patient contact were very professional." Her Career
"Express Scripts has offered me opportunities I can't even begin to explain. Value has been added to my career through countless growth opportunities in areas such as leadership and recruitment." Memorable Express Scripts Experience
"My director asked if I would be interested in trying to get licensed in other critical states to cover the Pharmacist in Charge (PIC) position. It took me almost a year but I earned all seven of the valid licenses. It's an accomplishment that I am very proud of."

Charlton, Massachusetts
His Role at Express Scripts

His Career
"Being able to work from home has allowed me to advance my career and attain many personal goals. Express Scripts has been very flexible, supportive and full of resources. The work-life balance has been a great asset to my career."
Memorable Express Scripts Experience
"When I first started working at Express Scripts, I had the opportunity to travel to Oklahoma to work in the field with physicians. Prior to this opportunity I interacted exclusively with physicians in the New England area. This "out of the ordinary" experience was refreshing."
Kelly E., Employee Since 2002, Pharmacist On-Boarding Trainer
Tempe, Arizona
Her Role at Express Scripts
"I started as a Staff Pharmacist, then moved up to a Supervisor role for about 2 years. Currently, I am working to develop a Pharmacist training program in Verification that I helped implement."
Why She Chose Express Scripts
"When I moved from Boston, I interviewed with Express Scripts and a large retail company. I saw a quality of life that I didn’t see at the other employer. Also, the business hours at Express Scripts were more attractive than retail business hours."

"This is a very challenging environment where your professional knowledge is tested daily. You grow as a Pharmacist and as a person."
The Culture at Express Scripts
"Here, the culture is very open where both personal and professional growth are encouraged. I enjoy working in a culture that wants you to learn and succeed."
Chun K., Employee Since 2001, Staff Pharmacist - Compounding
Bensalem, PA
His Role at Express Scripts
"Compounding is a very unique process. Sometimes we get prescriptions for medicines that are not available commercially, such as certain hormone replacement therapy medications for post-menopausal women. I create the drugs that a specific patient needs."
Why Express Scripts?
"Previously, I worked at a chain store pharmacy where I was responsible for many aspects of the operation. I wanted to get back to what I studied in school and utilize more of my pharmacy skills."
Memorable Express Scripts Experience
"The most memorable experiences occur when I talk with a patient or doctor personally to tailor a medication to the specific needs of a patient. It is rewarding to know that I am able to affect a patient's lives on an individual basis."
How Express Scripts Differs from Other Companies
"I enjoy the mail order setting. It allows you to focus on one aspect of the business and do that to the best of your ability."
