Pros

No experience needed and will train you.

Cons

There is no room for growth, cvs health owns Aetna and still give their employees trash medical benefits. Everyday is a new rule. CVS just started closing the pharmacy for lunch which is great but its only so they can make sure you DONT get paid for 30 minutes so they are able to save as much money as they can. District leaders don't really care about what the employees go through or how heavy our work load maybe , they just decrease hours given and only care about numbers. CVS wants their employees to work like robots with very little at home work like balance. The pharmacist will schedule you from open to close with no regard of what you may need to accomplish outside of work. Corporate will decrease store hours and tell you to use vacation time to make up the rest. During the pandemic we struggled with staffing and would tell stores to hire as much as they can, now those same people have to drive around from store to store just to keep afloat.

Pros

30 hour week with full time benefits Somewhat flexible schedule Average pay Some limited opportunities for advancement because of high burnout and turnover Only need to use limited brain power

Cons

Well…high burnout and turnover You will likely work alone with no support running every single aspect of the clinic Mostly negative feedback, very little positive Raises once a year which don’t even meet cost of living, so the longer you work there, the relatively less you make. Constantly added responsibilities and workload with no added support or compensation No real personal contact with other colleagues or management which adds to feelings of isolation and , in worse cases, general abandonment (resulting from inherent workplace design of the clinic). Can only surmise this is deliberate on CVS corporate’s part. Bottom line: even though you are a professional WHO IS THE FACE of the company providing quality medical care through your own license, and generating income and vast profits for the company CEOs, You are treated as nothing more than any other unskilled cvs employee. However other colleagues may have different experiences. It depends what clinic you work.

Pros

Days off during the week, great people, great bosses

Cons

Nobody stays there, can’t ever keep staffed, you are not a person you are a metric, always negative feedback, chart reviews etc. Customers don’t want to wait? It’s negative metrics for you. No buffer between you and patient so prepared to get attitude and yelled out when you don’t act like Burger King and everyone doesn’t get what they want. It’s all about money, money, money for CVS. Unsafe working conditions for all. Understaffing and increasing business and services is the bottom line.
