Observation
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
Layoff Upper Management
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

Am I in danger?
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
