CVS Health reviews

Varies from store to store. Low pay, hours vary weekly. Tasks and responsibilities are overwhelming. Must be done in a timely manner as well as filling prescriptions. Cvs system is good, but too slow.

- hourly pay not really commisurate with job expectations - constantly decreasing clinic hours of operation (harder to make full time hours) and clinics are constantly opening, then closing down with sudden staff layoffs. happens in cycles. - a mere 30 hours/week is considered "full time" so most NP's have another part time job on the side to make up for lost hours; we used to have 12 hour shifts years ago which was more feasable. -NO paid holidays off (unless you work the actual holiday) - NO sick days whatsoever (it comes out of your PTO days!) -only 40 hours of unused PTO rolls over into the next year (includes sick days); use it or lose it - if you're too sick to come into work, manager makes you find your own coverage ; no one helps you find someone to work for you. You have to call your roster of fellow NP's while sick in bed if people can't cover, guess who has to work sick? -if you need time off you have to go through the same roster of calls and beg coworkers to cover your shift(s) - you get paid a couple dollars an hour for being "on call"; you're only paid for 2-3 hours while your entire day is on hold. -NP's have to market their own clinic "door to door" and make cold calls to local businesses; no marketing department leading that. NP's with medical degrees must do it. - it is normal to travel an hour or more to your regular clinic or staff meetings; they do not take where you live into account, despite what they may say at the interview.
