CVS = the US Goverment-read this and you will laugh
I get my hub directions to check my outdated products eveyweek, then I do my price discrepancy report every week. Between both I would think we run a tight ship on dates and prices??? So last week my CRS auditor comes by and does her audit, two days... — read more
No pay increase for pharmacy managers!
Has anyone had their review this year? Looks like there is no raise to be had. And....most Pharm managers have reached their max! How is that possible!? Apparently with the new structure managers reached the peak of their earning potential!
CAR and Refunds
Doe's anyone get fired anymore for refunds or anything else on the CAR? It just seems like LP is not catching anyone like they used to. Managers just pencil whip those reports to be compliant. I remember when lp used to be in the stores investigating... — read more
Mistakes in pharmacy?
Does anyone else notice more mistakes by our pharmacies lately? There are a few I know saying they have made double digit amounts and these rpm use to only make them once in awhile.
Weekly Conference Call
Had our weekly conference call yesterday morning. My DL told us that "things were going to get very, very bad soon", and encouraged us to have a back-up plan. I've thought for awhile now that he was going to leave after bonuses... and I've already... — read more
Creativity at CVS is dead
CREATIVITY has been dead at CVS for a long, long time. I remember when we celebrated the creativity in this company by displaying it for every manager to see. An exchange of ideas existed for all to utilize. That exchange stimulated our minds and... — read more
LP Audits
Do all districts/regions have the same audit? In our district the question “Does Store Manager work 2 closing shifts per week?” was implemented on our audit a couple of months ago. If Store Manager misses that question you automatically fail the... — read more

Does anyone know what it is?
Has any SM gone through an FFL class yet?
The RM for my area is starting an FFL in the near future. Can anyone who has already gone through it vouch for its helpfulness or lack there of? Do you feel any closer to a potential EL role? Thanks!
Store Managers Meetings
Just wanting to know how other districts handle their monthly Store Manager Meetings. Do you get extra payroll hours that week to attend the meeting or do you attend the meeting on your day off?
RAPL meeting
Anyone know what the 1 day rapl meeting Orlando is about?
It's all a scam
Service is ridiculous this year. They raised the targets to unreachable scores so we cant bonus and wont have successful scores. The higher they raise the targets the harder we will work to get mediocre results. We are strategically set up for... — read more
MyStore Health
How are there stores getting 4.0’s? I used to be one of those stores. Scripts are down! Optimization is terrible! Service is in the 80’s (target 95) WeCare (though not on MSH) is bad too. Anyone out there still performing well? Advice? Service is the... — read more
Now it’s time for HRBP and FTMs.
The first wave of field managers have been laid off. HR had to keep a straight face and pss the Koo laid as everyone was informed at the end of last year that their posisition was going to be eliminated. Just learned that they are now also passing... — read more
The only reason that the Wall Street Journal, and other news organizations, are not running.....
...the story on Larry Merlo, and CVS, is that they, like Merlo, they are Liberals, and would like to preserve the Conservative bias! Agree, or disagree?

CVS is having an identity crisis.
CVS is having an identity crisis. They think they are a higher end retailer and continue to push these offerings while abandoning sale/promo loss leaders. The reality is that the stores have turned into pill mills attached to rag shops due to high... — read more
Shares of CVS marked down for quick sale at $69.
$120 to $69 a share and its Helena's fault.. Not Blame the Chairman of the Board

.....however, as with everything CVS, the "Devil" is in the details!
Duh??
“Though she oversees an $81 billion operation, Foulkes is struggling to keep customers in the habit of buying general merchandise when they visit a CVS to pick up a prescription.” Fortune All she had to do was ask, we could have told her why????
Helena Foulkes quit!
Well our fearless leader must know something we dont. She resigned effectively immediately today. Wonder what she saw coming down the pipeline
Larry Merlo on Undercover Boss??????
You guys/gals need to lighten it up a little! Stressful times but stay the course...we need to stick together especially on this site. Soooooooo... what would an episode of Undercover Boss with Larry look like? Helena would probably become CEO... — read more

Tax Cuts and CVS
CVS stands to benefit by 2 billion by the new tax cuts. Will CVS be giving out bonuses like other companies are doing or will that all go to Larry Merlo? Asking for a friend.
District Leader Exodus
Who is planning to leave after stock and bonus this year? The role is awful with the extreme workload, lack of support from regional directors who are clueless about day to day operations, and the lack of training from the company all while trying to... — read more
Corporate expense
There are many retail workers and leaders on LinkedIn, maybe you can shine some light on this for me. “Amazon effect”-what does that mean to you? “Amazon effect” is a term used by company leaders that do not have the courage or will power to improve... — read more
