Q&A With CVS Health Employees

It varies by department, however business casual

Business casual or casual if no customer contact.

Don't know. Full time.

Extremely stressed with low moral. 8.5 to 12 hours.

Its definitely a great company Because of the benefits and because of working from home

its a check pure and simple Unless your going to be an Rph your stuck at lead tech

there are no benefits if you are part time. you do not even accrue time off.

Who knows what they go by. All I know is this year I had over 100 hours of vacation + it was my fourth full year

To get to your next step in life

Good company

They are the first to ‘fix something that isn’t broke’ & release it before its debugged

Very

Patient and friendly also be a good worker

Custer service is a must. Having patience when it comes to couponers because they can and will consumer up to 2 hours at the register and cause a ton of voids and returns. Also conflicts with other customers. Must be willing to give up your personal life because at CVS its them first or you will get fired.

It pushes any issues from one area to the next avoid handling HR issues until employee is so frustrated they quit.

HR issues are handled by a call center who then passes it off to someone else who passes it off on someone else. If you are really lucky you may get a call back but generally you don't get your issue resolved. There is no longer any person you can speak with directly. They pass the buck to another person or another department. Never any resolution.

New Patients Staff and training

The technology is falling behind

Business casual

nice casual, no jeans or shorts, look professional

Knowledgeable no the insurance and doctor requirements and be very helpful and patient.

young or mostly women looking for part time

When volume is high they expect your life to be devoted to CVS. When volume is low they don't give you enough working hours to pay your bills.

Awful, I never see my wife. I'm a lead tech and besides myself there is one other tech with more than a year experience, I myself have 5. Since CVS only allows me 8 hours for training new hires they basically don't know how to do most of the job. It takes time to learn how to do things. The end result of this is that I end up doing all the tasks all of inventory, insurances etc...New techs never get better because at a busy store like mine you have to rush doing 500 RXs a day so there's never time to go slow and show people anything.

Until 2018 yearly. Now not at all.

yearly

not often, either front store or pharmacy

Not common.

mostly meetings or drinks after meetings

what team outings?!

long hours as a manager

The morale would go down after getting a shoddy president.

I think it is good. Everyone seems to get along and most of the time they are busy, but always available to help you.

Horrendous. Our workers don't know what their end goals are anymore, since it certainly isn't focused on the patients.

talk about liking to help people

Be honest and just overall a nice person.

Depends on experience

Horrendous.

High deductible health insurance which covers very little. 401K with matching contribution

medical, dental, vision, flex spending, stock purchase, life ins.

Nothing unique. They provide what all employers should provide.

It took 8 months to get my flex spending card, then, (of course) was unable to use by end of year. Also had my dental ins cancelled at end of each month in spite of premiums taken from my paychecks. Cancelled app'ts and took numerous phone calls to have it remain in effect beyond 1 month.Unique, but major nightmare. Also expected to be on call at pharmacy for 12 house on Sundays, for which I was paid $50.total. Hourly, not salaried. Not at all legal.

The morale at CVS is extremely low. Overtime hours with no pay and leadership only focuses on the bottom dollar and not the welfare of their employees or customers.

Morale is positive.

People who care about power and money

Those that take initiative, who strive to do better than just meet expectations

The interview process differs from manager to manager but it is relatively informal. We look for dependable, teachable and honest. If you are all 3 of those you could be with the company forever. Fail one and your gone.

I work massive.amounts of.hours. they make me. Im salaried amd accoun5for 25% of.my total labor budget

That we all teated equal at all levels of our team.
