Concerns About Upcoming Meeting

My director proposed discussing my career planning in our upcoming meeting. Soon after, I noticed she had deducted 100 hours from my PTO Bank. She then took a week-long vacation and is expected back in the office next week. I suspect she might be... — read more

So layoffs are next week?

It’s pretty much what everybody says now. How many people will be affected, what do you think? Which areas will be targeted?

So many execs on “PTO/vacation”

I’m sure it’s entirely a coincidence that exec leaders are ALL of PTO right now… with essentially the same away message. I’m sure they totally aren’t in a secret meeting deciding our futures. Because this didn’t happen right before the last huge... — read more

I’m thinking we should all go to work or hop on the VPN on our illicit dr-gs or drinks of choice. The entire workforce. That’ll show em.

My goal is to leave CVS before the end of the year

Things have been going downhill for years so that seems like the only smart thing to do. I used to like my job and now I feel sick to my stomach every day when I have to head to work. I know no job is ideal and I can expect to have problems... — read more

How are they getting around the WARN act this time?

Last year. There were long runways of staff staying on for months after getting the news they would be laid off. This delayed CVS going through the WARN process. Now I hear that layoffs are supposed to happen next week, with staff leaving middle of... — read more

RTO enforcement

What will happen to people who aren't compliant? That many people getting summarily fired next week seems unlikely.

I’ve worked at several pharma retailers before

CVS is definitely the worst. I took the job a while ago due to convenience (moved for a family member). There are not many better opportunities where I am, so I’m stuck with CVS for now. But Jesus, is it a horrible workplace…

Appeal "Water Cooler Chat" meeting w/Max

It feels like colleagues in these meetings are too scared to state how they really think or feel for fear of retaliation by their management. Maybe Max should have these without managers or supervisors on the call.

Is CVS "too big to fail?"

People keep telling me I shouldn't be worried about CVS going the way of the dinosaur, but I'm not so sure. Much bigger companies have folded and no longer exist. Considering how things have been going lately, I don't think it's outside the realm of... — read more

What is the official policy on not being alone in the store? And where do I find it exactly, so that I have it in writing.

Posting here instead of reddit, to keep more anonymous for obvious reasons. Let’s just say our DL conveniently looks the other way when alone, and says just stay open your fine. I need written proof he’s wrong. I know it’s against company policy... — read more

So many opportunities to develop, diversify and deploy sound business tactics have been missed. Model under which we are operating now has no future. CVS will just drag itself to the finish point, shedding decent employees, talent and missed... — read more 

Average Age of Layoff Folks

Most selected to layoff seem to be in their late 45s and over. Does this mean there are grounds for age discrimination? Often they select 5 to 7 people in the same job category. Then segregate them by Race, Age, Gender. Anyone over 45 and above will... — read more

Appeals misery

Anyone else here from appeals feeling completely burnt out? I’ve never experienced such a toxic and punitive work environment. Leaderships only focus is unrealistic metrics. No work life balance at all. No wonder turnover is so high.
