The company has shifted priorities from people and performance to performance only. CVS does have a responsibility to the shareholders to not go down the toilet and performance will help achieve that. However, it is a shame that the field level culture has become cutthroat due to pressure from above. I can remember 5-6 years ago having trouble in my marriage and my DM coming to do a visit. I had worked 3 14’s in a row. He told me to call someone in and go home. I was worried about OT and payroll, he was worried about me. He simply told me that my family was more important than the business that day and I will never forget it. Saved my marriage, finished in top 20% of Region in performance that year. He left the company. It’s a shame...we still have some really good people that carried over from the big field cut a couple of years ago, but we also have some new ones that have something to prove. CVS wins because in another few years they will just replace all the ones who remember a proud company with high expectations that valued people with the ones that conform to their new DL model.
That was when we were all a team. Our DL cared about us personally and professionally and vice versa.
Those "good ole days" at cvs are over now, and they've been over for MANY years!
We don't!!
Not happening anymore. .... unless you both want to take on one of Larry's grenades and he kicks the dirt on top of you.
If you do, make sure the DL jumps in first
... dont trust them.
