Pros

CVS Caremark has a very challenging management training program that is centered upon on-the-job training during the day and online certification training at night. My manager is a top notch trainer and all of my co-workers are honest and helpful people of integrity. I get to learn a new aspect of retail management every day and I am tested on what I have learned every week. My advice to business grads who want experience in retail, operations, supply chain, or marketing management is to just think about CVS Caremark. It is an undeniable juggernaut of endless opportunity.

Cons

Not much time for asking too many questions because of the fast pace of worklife. No pay for online training if you are a mgmt trainee (but pharmacist and pharmacy support staff do get paid for online training)

Pros

Good training program but it can be very taxing if you work in a pharmacy that is not managed very well.

Cons

Lots of people in and out in some stores there is a ton of turnover, in others people are there a long time.

Pros

I get much enjoyment out of my job when I can truly help someone and know that they appreciate the work I put in to help them. In my store, I'm lucky enough to work under a wonderful PIC and a fairly strong support staff.

Cons

You work with people's medications in stressful conditions because you are constantly understaffed. Aside from your immediate pharmacy supervisor, the negative respect that rains down from upper level management is disgusting. Even when are pharmacy scores are flawless we get emails about one thing or another that the district/pharmacy/area managers are not happy with. Respect doesn't exist in this company. If you couple that lack of respect from management with the way customers treat you, then you are getting it from both sides. I don't expect to get that much respect when working retail. However, we have many customers who are repeat complainers, even when nothing is wrong. They will call corporate to complain about something and corporate will give them a gift card. Talk about reinforcing behavior.
