"Always something new going on there and a very fun group of people to work with. If I had the opportunity to ever be a part of the store planning group again and work full time, I would take it."

"Hours are cut without warning. Was told we would have them back by April, but I still don't make 38-40 hrs a week like I did before. Raises are based on whether you harass the customer enough during their transaction to make them buy a carepass. All my hard work and dedication mean nothing to this billion-dollar company. I make too much for assistance, but not enough to buy groceries. Worst company I have worked for. Once I get a new job I will never set foot in CVS again. I don't even make my rent in one check....my rent is $925. How pathetic is that? I stated from the start I wanted to move up. I've asked about a position that is not filled in this certain store for a year. Got blown off each time. Skeleton crew with no hours....BS."

"As a Pharmacy Technician at CVS, the job requires good communication skills, attention to detail and a willingness to learn. The pay is reasonable, but the job can be physically demanding at times. The hours can also be long and the work can be repetitive."

"I like working for CVS for the most part the other workers are ok, the company is a good one to work for and I believe I am paid well. The other workers are mostly all horrible, I don't know where they got these people from. They don't speak to the customers right and they aren't polite, it's like they don't even want anything to do with other people in general. There are one or two pharmacists that are great and then others that don't want to do their job either. A complaint is a daily thing for anything concerning the job you should be doing anyway. The manager plays favorites and it's disgusting the 18-year-old girls get to do production all the time and nothing else."

"I have worked for CVS Pharmacy from 2019 to the current day. This has been one of my favorite jobs while going to school. My relationship with my coworkers and boss is the best I've ever experienced. Everyone works as a team and is always willing to help one another inside and out of work. I enjoy the constant movement of work and tasks to do and enjoy the hectic environment. it has greatly taught me how to adapt to all personalities, responsibility, loyalty, and a healthy relationship between coworkers and boss. I admire the people I work with and hope to find that in a new job that will help me grow and focus on what I went to school for."

"CVS is the worst company to work for, at least in NYC. Employees are mistreated by management and customers horribly. I would avoid seeking any employment in this company…I cannot wait to leave. Fortunately, I am already retired and can leave at any time."
