Pros

Great work hours, great pay, flexibility, love meeting new patients, they are so interesting and fun.

Cons

Working with a few prideful, lack of authority in their personal life, messy, drama filled, evil, phony women do not know how to lead from all cultures. CHANGES, more changes and lack of leadership in the roles to follow the changes efficiently. The job for Np’s are the ones who want to do little to no thinking with their brains.. There is NO Advocacy for the Nurses. Who talks to adults like their kids as if they themselves are perfect( THESE FEW NP’s) it’s a cycle. Lack of patient advocacy on a pt level. Pt get talked to horribly and made felt like they came to the wrong place. Life is too short. Come to work to make a environment thrive, be a part of the balance not the problem. Pt are treated as if they are the disease and they are the ones who keep us paid..

Pros

Met some fun people 5 words.

Cons

They have meetings telling you how many more millions the company is making every month and then cut your hours so that you are doing more and more of the work yourself, not managing. At most you have 2 people in the store but if someone calls in sick, forget it, you're by yourself and wont be able to leave the cash register so plan on working an extra day or 2 to make up all of the work you cant get to. This impacts your ability to help customers exactly the way you think it would, so forget meeting the impossible goals and metrics. Since you have no time to train employees but have to depend on them to do the work of 2 people they eventually decide the stress isnt worth it and leave, so expect to always be hiring. If you do somehow manage to keep an employee around long enough to be helpful to you, upper mgmt will just pressure you to find reasons to write them up and fire them so that they dont cost them too much in salary and/or benefits. They try to use their scheduling system so that employees dont quite qualify for it anyway. I have no idea why anyone works for or shops at cvs. They've broken quite a few privacy laws bc they are cheap, have the highest prices and worst customer service, and the pharmacy techs are definitely gossiping about you.

Pros

You learn a lot about Medicare and prescription insurance. Some people are nice.

Cons

The management team has no clue on how to properly motivate its subordinates. There is no professional growth opportunities due to the current management being so desperate to cling to their current jobs that you have to transfer out of the department for any hope to progress. Recently changed to an hourly position and would not be surprised when hours get cut. As a reviewer they changed my role and function in the department with little notice or training. I am not properly financially compensated for the amount of time and energy this takes to keep up with the current volume of cases. People quit and find opportunities with other companies. Once an opportunity presents itself I will also be jumping ship. Sad that in all the time I have been here it just never gets better. Also, since it is a grievance based department there are not a lot of happy people to talk to.
