I have noticed that we are bleeding SM and DL lately in our region. Is that company wide? We can’t keep an SMIT in the role long enough to even properly learn the job before they are forced into a store and without a proper DL no job title changes... —  read more 

Coming from another Fortune 500 retail company, I have noticed how bloated upper management is at CVS. Why doesn’t CVS trim some of those positions instead of the stores? One upper management person makes the pay of almost an entire store, if not... —  read more 

There is a leader in position that is destroying the team around them. They don’t have a lot of experience or understand any process. WAS lucky enough to have them in store once. Hope by next visit they are moved out or up. Originally from WAG they... —  read more 

The Top leadership is on his way out. More coming today.

Does anyone have any comments on these folks?

For carepass. All my regulars have it now. How do I hit the goal of 3 per day when we can barely get 1 now? And FYI. My store did hit our target for 2019

DLs, If you are removing hours from your FS or RX teams to fund a 40 hour per week Admin or Inventory Specialist or any other position...you need to stop! What you are doing is wrong! It doesnt matter whether you have asked corporate to remove... —  read more 

Almost 400 stores will close this year Staggered , every region - lease will not be only factor

Apparently the hours are being cut just for the part-timers, but my store recently (as in within the last several weeks) hired several part-timers. This has me worried that instead of hours being cut for them they might be considering cutting some of... —  read more

Larry Merlow. Thank you for being the greatest ceo and caring for customers and your employees on their path to better health!

2 days before Christmas unannounced. Store looks like it hasn’t been faced for a week. Floor hasn’t been vacuumed. About 25k in for the day. He tells me I need to get back to the basics. I just handed him my keys and walked out. F— this sh–. Let... —  read more

So the enrollment is our problem. The retention is CVS’ problem. They are not holding us accountable for that (yet). Tell the customer to sign up for one month and take the coupon today. Then cancel if they don’t want it anymore. You get the... —  read more 

Less than a month until we are supposed to go to RX hours and still haven’t received any signage to let the customers know of the change. In fact, I’ve heard corporate can’t decide if I they even want hours to match on Saturday anymore. It may be... —  read more

How did we all do with our 2020 hours budgets??

Kinda quiet here lately.

Any Info on what’s to come for 2020? Layoffs, scorecard, payroll budgets, realignments, position changes/consolidations???

Anybody hearing dramatic cuts? Which will result in RPH layoffs?

So Walgreens has completely eliminated the SM bonus, and now store managers are leaving Walgreens left and right. No bonus = no incentive to stay. Might cvs follow suit and do the same thing?

How is an SM expected to assist a very high volume Pharmacy, when there are only a total of (4) F/S employees, and therefore, they work in pairs, every other day?

Seriously though. Been to multiple locations in the past couple of days. Stores are not stocked well and look like they haven’t been faced in months. Cvs is just falling apart. Only a matter of time
