Nobody is happy
I think nobody is currently happy at or with CVS other than the upper management which keeps pocketing their fat bonuses at the expense of employees and customers. We are always understaffed and overworked and this has affected customer service to... — read more
Does CVS Want To Antagonize Customers?
Lets see. Local CVS has four self-checkout machines. Literally three of the four were broken, the fourth didn't accept cash. One (1) cashier. Line is backed up the wazoo. Of course she has to do the Extracare chant with every. single... — read more

CVS JUST DOESNT CARE ABOUT US ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY
If any of you out there think that CVS cares then you are blind. This company cares only about profit. I have worked as a store manager for 20 plus years. Have always been number 1 in sales. #1 in customer service. Etc etc. My DL gives me a... — read more
Back to basics...
Cvs doesn’t care about there employees well being for one along with that for a pharmacy company they don’t even care about the well being of employees. On the retail side they cut and cut on hours and no time to get all the work done. They only want... — read more

Why is CVS no longer innovative?
Someone well noticed, this company is more reactive than proactive. CVS has long lacked proactivity and innovation. I wonder why there are no more innovations? Every innovation is a risk, but it is high time for management to do something about it... — read more

Scared of Amazon?
CVS is really scared of Amazon and the threat they pose. Publicly cvs has said their not afraid of Amazon, but you and I both know they HAVE to say that, or investors will run for the hills. Just look at Aetna. CVS bought Aetna because of Amazon... — read more
No Loyalty!
No loyalty whatsoever for high performing/long tenured employees. I've been with the company for almost 16 years and have never been more discouraged with CVS than I am now. Recently became a DPC. The DL and I chose to work with each other for... — read more

Money
The entire US is hurting for employees to fill their stores. The people who have been here for at least 2 years deserves more money!! Raise the cap for hourly colleagues! Raise the cap for store managers! This is ridiculous. I can go work at fast... — read more
Is it still worth it?
I was wondering if anyone still thinks this is a good company to work for. I’ve seen a lot of valid complaints here and for those who have been here for many years I can understand how it’s not the same company you started off with. As an employee... — read more

Being forced to switch stores
Not going to divulge too much information, but I am a long tenured CVS manager in. High voume fs, high shrink fs, high volume rx, new health hub location. Shrink has been a major talking point since last year's inventory hit and spiked huge. I was... — read more
facemaak
Sure would like to get rid of these facemask.... sure would like to tell my employees that CVS is easing the cap on key positions....
They set a bad example for us?
I get really disappointed when I see what kind of people come to managerial positions. Maybe I'm not right, but these people didn't deserve those positions. I worked hard and I was totally committed to this company, but when I see how they behave and... — read more

Would you like the company to get rid of Carepass?
The question may be a bit banal, but it has become so tedious and stressful for me to sell Carepass that I would most like it to be gone. I know some will say it’s insane and it probably won’t happen, but I hope there is at least one percent... — read more
How prepared are you in case of possible layoffs?
I was pretty relaxed and didn’t think about the layoffs for a while. It was short–lived because I’m really worried about the Target merger now. I know, we should always be prepared, but I am by no means prepared for the situation if they tell me that... — read more

Someone HAS to know the inside story on this. Please spill the beans and tell us is this true??
Target channel = done
The long awaited dismissal of all of the target channel field leaders is upon us. Finally the easiness of being a target rx sup or rd sup is done! They are all going into core markets - announcement coming soon.
Monopolies, Mergers, Management Consultants, PBM’s

Forced to work weekends
So apparently now if we can’t make our carepass target for the week the dl is making us work on the weekends. Doesn’t sound ethical to me. Should I report this to HR? Do you think it would even do anything?
