Pros

There are no good reasons to work for CVS/pharmacy. Do not be drawn in by pay and benefits. This company is dishonest and highly politically charged. Technicians are poorly trained and even if the staffers want to do a good job they cannot the way the system is set up. CVS believes it is easier to pay off their mistakes rather than actually have a good work ethic and avoid them in the first place. Most people who work for CVS are people no one else will hire. Their attitudes are at the bottom of the cess pool. Avoid CVS if at all possible.

Cons

Disrespect. Dishonesty. Politically driven. No Integrity. Care only about numbers and nothing else. They operate all of theie stores on a skeleton crew. There customer service initiative is just a smoke screen. They only care about numbers so that those in management can get big bonuses. When customers call to complain, they just give them a bunch of crap about how they are sorry and will resolve the issue; the issues never get resolved. Benefits and pay are the best in the industry but you are a slave to the work. The company thinks you are part of their cult ; it's their way or no way.

Pros

The only reason why I work at CVS is because it is close to where I live. Furthermore, it doesn't require me to use any type of communications.

Cons

The managment sucks. They expect way too much of you and never wanna pay you just enough to keep you satisfied. You always have to way more than what your own department or position requires you to. For instance, I am the head cashier of the store that I work at. However, I mostly have to pick up the registers from the pharmacy or either process films in the photo lab which has nothing to do with my own position WHATSOEVER!!!

Pros

Pretty much everyone works like a family. A well oiled machine. Every now and then you get a few kinks in here and there, but they usually work their way out....sometimes with a little help. Training is a big part of this company and I fully appreciate it.

Cons

There are a few things that kind of hurt CVS from my eyes. First off is the Heath Care benefits. I was so used to going into a Kaiser Permanente,putting down my 30 dollar copay, and that was it with my old company. CVS uses Etna, and and besides the copay, you have to pay a little more for everything that was done. Bill to follow. The second part is for those who wish to move up in the company. Find a store that has a manager that is willing to work with you and get you to the classes you need. It can get a little crazy. I'm at my 3rd store now. Lets hope 3rd time is a charm.
