CVS Health reviews

Where to start. I would have given them zero stars if I could. The IT org at CVS Specialty is in general, the worst I've seen in nearly 20 years of being in IT. Their executive leadership is completely inept. There is zero accountability at the executive and upper management levels. They're stuck in the swamp using very out-dated tech and methodologies. They refuse to make the necessary changes to drag themselves up to even the last 10 years in technology. The organization's leadership has no grasp of work/life balance. They go from 70+ hour weeks with 24 hour support and 7 day work weeks as far as the eye can see, burning everyone out to the point of quitting, all due to their stunning mismanagement and horrible or non-existent planning. From that, all the way to shutting down nearly every project mid flight at the end of August, because they ran out of money three to four months before the end of the year forcing layoffs of full time employees. Who gets fired for mismanagement of an organization to the point where they're forced to lay off employees? Oh, that's right, they're usually promoted.

Awful hours(especially 24 hour stores) Working holidays Underpaid Corporate always cutting back hours Full time should be considered 40 hours, not 30... They expect you to do more than what “your” team can handle... Truck drivers and delivery’s would always be messed up, whether it is missing pallets, cases, wrong items being delivered to the store... etc. 99% of the time, there were always issues with truck. Photo lab department is a HOT MESS! Photo machines always have technical issues and customers can’t print pictures. Everything in the store that is electronic are ALL refurbished items. You know what that means right? Always calling in repairs or sending out new items because the refurbished items break easily.. the registers still use IBM which is the slowest operating system. DO NOT get me started with the coupons... coupons and the systems we use DO NOT go well together.. slow, slow, slow!!!! They always crash and have to reboot them which takes 10-15 minutes to full reboot back up. When there is a large transaction that a customer has, prepare yourself because it will crash on you. Bottom line to sum it all up, prepare to run around like a maniac with no head, and expect to be worked like a SLAVE!
