CVS Health reviews

Lots of turn over and/or restructuring of management over the years. I had 7 different managers in the 8 years I was there. CVS slowly chipped away at the benefits. Changed the bonus structure to only reward top performers as opposed to a profit sharing type bonus-you have little control over how many patients walk in your door. On call shifts made it hard to have work-life balance.

No work/life balance. Store Managers are exploited. You must work 45 hours per week and your salary is based off of those 45 hours; however, you do not get a penny for any time over those 45 hours. When you take into account that your "breaks" are already factored into the MySchedule system, you are really in your store for 49 hours per week if you do the minimum. Extremely low Front Store payroll means that you WILL work more than 45 hours per week if you want your store to look good and be operationally sound. Front Store Managers who promote to District Leader are on a different pay scale than Pharmacy Managers promoted to district leader. District Leaders who come from the RX receive a base salary of $145-150,000 per year, while DLs who come from the front store earn a base salary around $80-85,000 (both will be higher in big city markets like Boston or NYC). What kind of incentive is that? Unfair and discriminatory against the FS.
