Thread regarding CVS layoffs

Can’t afford life but worked at Aetna my whole life

Make it make sense. These millionaire VP’s and CEO’s living large. I can’t afford a new car and dedicated my life to this stinking company. And for those of you who say oh your choice yea well I didn’t have much of a choice. That doesn’t excuse this company from paying people the way they do. I’m sick of it. They just keep piling the work on with a salary from 2017. No matter how much people scream about it on heartbeat it just gets ignored. I can’t stand them. DDAT blows.

@aj They do not offer any incentives or compassion. Extra Billions made have been contributed to Political Campaigns and Washington DC Construction and Development Fund. To recover that money, no pay increments, no bonus offered and increase layoffs.

@jv

What competitors?

UNC is a cluster to get an interview.
Humana is easier, but you still need to get past the HR bots.
Centene just went through layoffs.
Walgreens..c mon.

I submitted a joke application to CVS. It was denied on Saturday night. And yes I qualified for the role with less than 80 applicants.

Its he-l out there. Pharmacy and Health Insurance are small nepotism spaces to navigate.

When I see posts like this I automatically think that every competitor in the area is also paying the same, because otherwise people would leave (or never take the job at CVS to begin with), and CVS wouldn't be able to get away with super low wages for very long. Since most of the people complaining are still here, it just seems like the options aren't great to leave. It's sad, but CVS will get away with whatever they can if their workers aren't leaving.

@aj, Agreed, CVS is nuts, too. Nepotism is at its peak. For many of us, the pay ranges are ridiculous. I know Analyst/Senior Analysts who have been with the company for over 20 plus years and are still making $60k annually. It’s an absolute shame. Now leadership even wants us to learn more. Writing goals feels like a joke when you're treated like trash. Pay raises are only 1% to 2%. As OP mentioned, you stay for your own stability, but that doesn't mean the company has the right to exploit you

Same for CVS. It’s time for corporate to give a cost of living adjustment. When raises don’t even keep up with inflation, that’s a problem. Especially when corporate makes billions every quarter. They can afford it.
