Pros
The work is meaningful, and many frontline employees are dedicated, hardworking, and committed to patient care.
Cons
My experience with Option Care Health was defined by poor leadership, lack of accountability, and an unsustainable workload.
Work volume increased significantly over a relatively short period of time, while staffing levels did not keep pace. Employees were expected to absorb the additional workload without the resources needed to do so, creating a high-pressure environment that was not sustainable.
Leadership lacked visibility and engagement with frontline teams. There was little effort to understand day-to-day challenges, and communication was often inconsistent or absent. This disconnect made it difficult for employees to feel supported.
As operational demands grew, responsibility was frequently shifted away from leadership and onto external factors or frontline staff. Employees were made to feel as though they were not doing enough, despite consistently working at or beyond capacity.
Additionally, dismissive comments from leadership suggesting that performance issues were due to employees not wanting to work contributed to low morale and did not reflect the reality of a team that was working extremely hard under increasing pressure.
Overall, the culture did not prioritize employee support or accountability, leading to burnout and frustration.
