Pros

Interactions with patients and customers. Some coworkers were nice but bad working conditions turned everyone nasty. It will be hard to blame them for that. It is hard to fix what you can not control

Cons

This is a simple warning to current and future pharmacists about the Retail side of CVS Health. Your health and sanity will be affected in a very negative way. Honestly I do not know how someone can survive these working conditions. I do not know where to start and finish. From Loss Prevention, store managers, DM, Pharmacy supervisors to Regional Managers. I guest it is the CULTURE at this company. Company started to be very bad starting in 2011. My impression was that they were finding reasons to fire older workers and replace them with younger ones. I believe the long term goal is to decrease the pay for pharmacists. My projection is that pharmacist will be paid less than $30/hour within the next five years that is if you can find a JOB!!! What was the total compensation for Larry Merlo last year?

Pros

Stable company. Decent pay. Many locations to choose from if you decide to move. ....and that's about it. Not much else good to say about the place.

Cons

Where do I begin? A prior review put it best. You are a manager on paper. Be prepared to work like a dog. The workload grows and grows and It's all on you to get done. 24 hour stores have hours and you'll be in a better spot, but most stores are "minimum hour" stores, which means it's one staff person and one manager at all times. You work under constant threat of documentation "write ups" and separation "termination" when things don't get completed on time, or if store doesn't collect enough emails, or if your customer service scores aren't perfect. A truly miseable work environment. Training doesn't exist here, and in 8 years, never seen not one person move in to upper management. The technology you use in the office is staight out of the eighties. If you hold a manager position now, you will be dumbed down coming here. The DM's like to micro-manage you.

Pros

My fellow practitioners are exceptional.

Cons

If you want to be solely evaluated based upon projected revenue as opposed to your ability to provide quality healthcare (in 11 minutes or less!) than this is the place for you to waste your time. Management is obsessed with profits and could care less about care. They are riding the Obamacare gravy train, where people are in essence, doomed to double-billing.
