CVS Pharmacy

You read the title right! Group work makes the dream work :) Work is less stressful when you have a great team behind you.

The company is very good and the people there is very nice and friendly and kind they treated me good

I run a well oiled machine of a store. My work life balance is reasonable and is barely ever affected in my specific location. I don’t find this job extremely difficult because it’s all about routine and building a strong/reliable staff. Benefits are pretty decent too. However, I see other locations suffering big time due to understaffing, weak/unhelpful upper management/store leadership, and a difficult community (high theft locations).

Literally the worst experience of my life. The management gets more disgusting the further up the chain you go. Everyone will treat you like you don’t matter. They purposely take away hours of full time employees (at one point they scheduled every full time tech for 16 hours, for 2 weeks. We are used to working 33+ hours a week). They do this so it makes the workplace super hectic. You become days-weeks behind in work to where they beg you to come in. If you have any complaints they aren’t taken seriously, even when there are illegal actions involved. This is all around a bad company to work for, the staff is rude and so are the customers. I’ve worked in 4 different cvs pharmacy stores.

I moved to Spring Hill which is why I had to quit my job in St. Petersburg, but other than that I really did love my job.

I love my working environment and my co-workers. The company offers on-the-job training and growth to move up in the company.

Not once did I ever feel out of place, it’s fast paced and you’ll never get bored. The staff is very friendly

I was hired as part time worker at cvs and I got alot of hours and it was easy work however I got a car loan and when I talked to management and asked if I could have more hours or even go full time (which I was told I would be) they actually cut my hours and I wound up working less. It’s usually only you and one other person if your lucky and if you need a manager for any reason at all even just a coupon override, your going to be waiting a long time for them to come up. They are also very annoying with there care-pass program pushing it every single day

Not a bad place to work for. So under paid when your the only one doing everything. Lazy employee, bad management, management dont even back you up when customer are rude and ignorant. Also no one wants to help customers. Its an exhausting job.

If your a store manager or higher you'll love it you never have to show up and your DL couldn't care less. Anyone below Store Manager you will have all the work dumped on you and you'll watch all the higher ups chill while you work 50+ hours a week while they gaslight you into believing this is how it should be

It was good experience learning and have the opportunity working in the pharmacy too learning medicine refill the medication good people working with them 👍 is good experience they not greedy teaching you .

I enjoyed working at CVS it was a great please to learn customer Service and it was a great team that was always willing to teach, learn and help you grow.

Stock merchandise and interact with co-workers, it was fun experience working as a job trainee. CVS pharmacy is an interesting spot to start things off with work experience, and I’m hoping to restart my work experience by working as a retail associate in order to gain more experience for future jobs.

Hard work is always recognized as well as rewarded. From cashiers to pharmacies techs CVS always has room for growth.

I worked for cvs when they first took over eckerd drugs. I was with eckerd as a store manager then i became a pharmacy technician....cvs is a company that does not care what the employees have goin on...they are set on goals that will never be reached. The work vs pay sucks. You give your all and they give you nothing. Your raises are a slap in the face. I was there and left and then returmed. I wont return unless iam desperate.

The workload was always way behind. Never enough help. Staff was great but corporate made it nearly impossible to succeed. Numbers are all that matters. Don't expect a decent raise and never a bonus.

They don't care about things going on in your personal life. They over work you. And most of the managers have a stick up their ass or just don't care.

It is a horrible place everseen in my life. The pharmacist and the management treat other lower level staff as their commodities

This company does not care about its employees and only cares about making a profit. They never address any complaints from work environments that employees have and only address customer related issues to make sure they don't lose customers/money.

They don't pay as well as others, they forces stores to understaff, they rate you on trivial made up markers. You can find somewhere better.

The longer you work here the more your punished. New hires get paid more or only pennies less then people who have been there 10+ years. Good luck getting a bathroom break or lunch break.

Cvs pride's themselves on being customer oriented and family oriented for their employees. This is not true, they pressure their staff to get everything done but don't provide the staff or the hours to get stuff done so attention to customers lack, because if we don't get everything done we get talked down to. They only care about their money and not the well being of their employees or their customers.

fun place to work, supportive colleagues, job was temp, company bought out small town pharmacy and employed their fulltime employees, no more hours for temp employees.

Even though management told us to take breaks and lunches the pharmacist would not allow it. Pay was low. You could make more at McDonalds. They treated us like machines. They only cared about how many scripts could be completed in a few minutes. They give low raises also.

I started at the new Long's on La Jolla Blvd and loved it. I lived right up the street and could walk to work and see all my neighbors when they came into shop. They trusted me because I was a neighbor and gave good recommendations of products and knew where everything was in the store. When CVS came in there were some changes for the good and some not so good. One I found was they didn't order products for the specific area like Long's had in the past. I still find that when I go to CVS in other cities. However it's still the best Pharmacy and Drugstore that I have found yet.

Extended holiday hours, very few personnel scheduled daily, manager must fill in any capacity needed, I.e. cashier, photo lab, sticker, pharmacy assistance

A good company to work for. Had a nice boss and cool co workers, learned alot about retail management

Worked at the Huber heights location for close to 2 years before I left. I started off as a cashier and wasn’t too bad until I was trained as a pharm tech. They are part of a union that doesn’t like to do anything for there workers even when management treats them like crap. Pay is absolute garbage especially everything you get put through by higher up and especially with the customers. Management was unfair and loved favoritism. Don’t have high expectations, don’t think you will ever get paid for what you are worth, finally don’t think you’ll advance in that corporation at all. CVS doesn’t like to pay their workers, cuts hours but gives you more of a work load and you’ll never feel appreciated.

If you want to be a slave then you should work for CVS. Otherwise, head for the hills and don’t torture yourself. Life is too short to be treated the way this company treats its employees.

I began my Pharmacy career at Hartford Hospital as a Staff Pharmacist in 1980. In 1984, I was promoted to Pharmacy Supervisor of Out-Patient Pharmacy Services and held that position for 10 years. In 1995 HartforHealthCare Corporation purchased MidState Medical Center and I was reassigned as Director of Pharmacy Services and managed a staff of 25 employees. During the Integration between hospitals, I was again reassigned as Transition Director and chaired the Information Services Subcommittee. After the integration between hospitals in 2000, I was again promoted to Director of Business Systems at Hartford Hospital & in 2005 I was transitioned to Director of Clinical Ancillary Systems & Web Services for Hartford Hospital. I retired from Hartford Hospital in 2010. Shortly after retirement, I was asked to work as a Pharmacy Manager for CVS Health in Puerto Rico. I returned to Connecticut in 2015, as Pharmacy Manager. I still work for CVS but as a staff pharmacist.

I worked in The pond Street Newburyport, MA Pharmacy. It is a horrible place to work. The company constantly pushes the "we care about our workers and customers". Completely false. The corporation constantly comes first.. The store manager used the dictatorial management style. No One cared about your personal lifestyles. I worked there prior to covid. The schedule in the pharmacy was constantly understaffed. This resulted in huge lines of upset customers with no managerial support. The worst factor for me was that the managers were always aware of the problems and I learned that the issues were deliberately ignored. Their attitude was such that management burned out the pharmacy staff until they quit in frustration. They just hired more and burned out more. Of the eight pharmacy staff I trained with, six were gone within eight months and within 18 months everyone had laft. DO NOT TAKE THIS JOB!

I work for this company for 8 years it they not have values.and feelings.my manager tom be give me warning. Because I speak a other languages.he not understand.. G

I worked at CVS for almost 20 years in both the stores, the field and the corporate office. It's a typical fortune 50 company. You are there to do a job and that's it. I made life long friends although I don't know if that can be attributed to the environment. Since leaving CVS I have worked for smaller more initimate agencies and I much prefer that environment.
