1) A typical day at work: Most often on site at a Premier member hospital. Assess, recommend, implement and measure outcomes/results. Weekly travel to assigned location.

6) a - The most enjoyable part of my job: Establishing lasting relationships with multiple hospital leaders and staff. The ability to not only teach and recommend, but also the opportunity to collaborate and learn from other industry leaders.
    b - Meeting and/or exceeding Premier member hospital expense reduction goals!!

I worked there. Management is very poor. always look for cheap labor and recruits fake candidates all though management knows that candidate has fake experience and fake educational certificates. Management doesn't care about candidates skills always look for cheap labor for low salaries. No scope for growth and lot of politics among management. I would not opt to work there at all as a senior professional. This company is heaven for freshers and beginners with fake educational certificates. And one more thing is you should apply there through consulting firm so that management shows special interest on you to make full time irrespective of what is your educational background whether you have degree certificate or not.

Remote work must be dedicated.  So started at 8am at my designated work area at home.  Review prior day's progress and start from there.  Review emails and check with co-workers.  
Worked wonderfully with co-workers.  We worked like a family according to my boss.  It's surprising how easily we worked together and for clients remotely.  
I loved my job and I believe, was good at it.  According to my boss, my client's were NOT happy I was being let go.  My boss and co-workers spoke once a week to get an update of where others were at and if anyone needed any help, but otherwise, we worked completely on our own.

My experience was two-fold, great at first working as an analyst for several years - growth, training, great colleagues. Accepted a promotion then two people began to bully and harass me to the point of making it an extremely hostile work environment.  One was an employee who did not get the position. The other kept earphones in her ears all day and was put out when someone attempted to make contact with her - then blamed others for not speaking to her - preschool behavior.  Management refused to acknowledge. If you are a favorite or part of a clique, you will be safe, but don't look for any assistance if your outside the box and just want to do your job.  Premier was a great company prior to becoming public, but once they attempted to change their business model, everything became disjointed, miserable and petty.

Meetings with clients, documenting challenges, opportunities, and outcomes, communicating with colleagues, a suppliers, and clients

Pro:  implements latest technologies  , free onsite YMCA classes for physical fitness.


Cons:
Subjective performance reviews, no incentives for individual performance.  No clear career paths or advancement opportunities, management structure changes twice a year limiting growth opportunities for non management.
No HR process in place to analyze and deal with bad employee behavior , which allows toxic team environments to fester.

Performed many aspects of analysis for cost savings. All analysis had to be presented and explained. I owned all parts of the cost analysis. Environment was a very high level performance atmosphere. Every day I was challenged to present the most accurate information. It was a social and relaxed atmosphere too. Very conducive learning environment. I was respected by co workers and was considered a high performer.

A typical day involved reviewing the previously submitted documents from the legal team the prior day.  I'd cross reference the new data with our master spreadsheet via Access and make any changes/updates to the master file.  A weekly meeting, usually on Friday, was required to give our boss an update on our progress.

While I worked with about 10-15 lawyers in any given period, I was generally on my own doing all the updating myself.  I would report to the project manager who reported directly to the head of the legal department.

The job itself is not difficult, enjoyable at times. The issue is the volume of work and the expectation that you are to be available at all times (evenings, weekends etc.) If you're not willing to run yourself ragged and work 24/7 then opportunities for advancement are greatly diminished. When workload is discussed with management they say they are taking steps to alleviate but nothing to show for it. Burn out is inevitable. 

They do offer great benefits and compensation so if the above is worth it then go for it.

I work with great people who strive to make the day-to-day aspects of our career challenging and fun. Premier promotes innovation and collaboration, allowing the employees to have a relaxed environment where change thrives. We constantly strive to find new and better ways to support our members, and we are able to focus on our customers due to the relaxed workplace.
