"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."

Pharmacy Technician

"I worked at Cvs Pharmacy since approximately last 2 years. I love working because I meet new customers daily, and make new friends. I enjoy the environment in the Pharmacy when there is low work-load; and, the best part of working in Pharmacy is when majority of employees are working together to finish pending works. I love helping customers and getting positive feedback for myself."

Cashier

"CVS is the worst company I have ever worked for. Working at McDonalds was better than working here honestly. The pay is nowhere near worth what they have you do. My typical work days consists of dealing with RUDE customers, running register, scanning damages, putting returns away, the photo machine, stocking, tearing/putting up tags, vacuuming, facing, dealing with bitchy managers that don't help with anything, and trying to help customers on the sales floor. Getting paid 8.50. What a joke."

"This is the worst company to work for. The managers are only worried about the bonuses they get at the end of the year. I've been working there 7 years and only make $11. This is the worst company to work for. They don't pay, but they want you to do everything. Like I said, CVS is the worst place to work for!"

Executive Assistant

"I've worked for CVS Pharmacy for over 10 years and while I'm generally pleased with the company, I seem to have hit a dead end, in my career with the company. Right now the company is headed towards what I see is a bad direction, they're cutting hours, but demanding more from those who are still employed. I've seen this before, and don't like it."

"This is one of the worst companies I have ever worked for! The lack of integrity and appreciation for its employees is baffling. The district and area managers have no interest in knowing the employees on a semi-personal level, but lecture the staff on how we must know every customer that visits the pharmacy. Elsewise you are penalized. Taking on additional responsibilities doesn't pay anymore, and they promise you hours that they don't have to give you especially during the summer months."

"CVS is the worst company that I have ever worked for in my life. Besides being underpaid and overworked, I have to deal with crack monsters on a daily basis.I don't understand why they would put a two lane drive-thru in the ghetto, when only 1 out of 20 people even own a damn car.Medi-Cal...Need I say moreWe're never stocked with merchandise because they steal EVERYTHING!One day I'm going to come in and the whole damn building is going to be gone."

"CVS is a strong company, but does not give the store manager the resources to get the job done the way we are expected with the constant reduction of payroll and more work added to the manager who is the only salaried employee in their stores."

"I've been employed with CVS Caremark for 10 years. This has been a wonderful opportunity for me and the company has helped me grow as an individual and an employee even through the rapid growth of the company."

CVS Employee

"I work in the PBM sector of CVS/Caremark, and do not enjoy the work settings and overall treatment of the technicians. Granted, it is a glorified factory job and production is the bottom line, as with any factory job, but the salaries are not competitive for pharmacy technicians. There is also a dichotomy that exists between the staff as the pharmacists are provided much more leeway and amenities, such as the ability to sit in the pharmacy, that technicians are not afforded.
