Pros

CVS has some good people here and there, but it doesnt make up for the poor leadership from the top.

Cons

CVS is notorious for paying under the bar, which is why their competitors (Catamaran) like to snatch the employees to grow themselves. The politics in the office are VERY strong, I have seen people disappear from groups like Benefits, Desktop Support, Account Management all because they disagreed with leadership,. or made a bad call once. No warnings, no nothing, just gone. CVS doesnt like to follow through on thier Work/Life balance, My first few weeks there, I was working 12 hour days until I put my foot down, and in that i was threatened with write ups and discipline. Regardless that my work was meeting deadlines. This is a company that I would be very reluctant to work for again, and I would never recommend anyone work here. HR is shoddy, the company does hire and fire sprees just like sprint. and the irving office is empty right now because everyone got fed up and over 200 people quit.

Pros

It was a fast paced environment where I learned a lot about medications, insurance, and dealing with patients. Training was pretty decent and I enjoyed the rush of always being busy. All useful since I'm applying to physician assistant programs. My store was extremely flexible about working around my school schedule and me going home for breaks (I'm a college student).

Cons

This is an extremely stressful company. They cut hours all the time and understaff pharmacies while still expecting top-notch customer service and an extremely high output. They also require unpaid online coursework and continuing education. I come home every shift exhausted and feeling like I disappointed my customers, about whom I actually care.
