Well This Is My last Week As A Coram Employee...Mixed Emotions 😵💫 Main Issue Is Why Are They Waiting So Long To Issue Severance Info?? Driving Me Bonkers 🤦🏾♀️ Any Other Aug 26ers Out There 👀
It's only when you leave that you see how miserable this place is
I don't know anyone whose life hasn't improved since leaving this company. It seems to me that this much disorganization is hard to find in other companies?
Corporate trying to figure out why low engagement
Corporate down to regional scratching their heads trying to figure out why engagement scores are low. Why associates don’t feel good about company. Here’s a non masters degree, non P.H.D. Food for thought answer. John Legend appearance google it... — read more
CVS closing downtown Fresno store amid Fulton Street revitalization
The CVS store at 1302 Fulton Street will be shutting its doors Sept. 13, the national retail chain confirmed this week. The 22,350-square-foot building at Fulton and Tuolumne streets was for decades a mainstay at the north end of the Fulton... — read more
DSSM
It sounds like they are finally getting rid of the DSSM position. This was a ridiculous position as nobody was interviewed for the position, it was simply given to the training store manager. Most are less qualified and not even good store managers... — read more
Why aren't more people leaving?
What's keeping you at CVS? I left a year ago and never regretted that decision but I know most of the people I worked with are still there and feeling as miserable as I once did. I know things are a bit trickier now but there is still an abundance of... — read more
How will this play out
We will go from 9 to at least 12-14 DLs in my state - all but 1 are pharmacist and all but 1 emerging leaders are pharmacists. There will be a lot of pharmacists not using what they went to school for on a daily basis . Will they be happy ? Will they... — read more
The vision is clear and obvious
The leaders are out for themselves from dm all the way to the top. Dangle the belief promotions are for the taking while working the cr-p out of people with no sign of real promotions. Take advantage cut costs, lie, and do whatever it takes to make a... — read more
Don't take layoffs personally
It does not surprise me when people say that they are laid off without any reason at all. You work hard - you do your best - you get laid off and then they don't even have enough decency say the reason for it?? Totally inhumane. Unfortunately, many... — read more
They always expect us to do more with less
Fewer people, fewer hours, but more work. Then they're shocked when people keep leaving. It's a mystery why.
Where is this company going?
I will be leaving soon, but still, I can't help but think about whether this could have been a much better place than it is now, if only the leaders had made slightly different decisions. Where is this company even going? One of the reasons why I... — read more

The job market is hot
I have read some of these posts and I am quite surprised that some stay here even though the job market is very hot. The first time I realized that I didn't like this place, I started looking for a new job and I will give notice in the next few... — read more
Grass is Greener
I have dedicated a lot of time to CVS, blood sweat and tears. The higher ups just can’t seem to figure out how they want to run the business and it keeps changing. It took them too long to figure out one DL for stores wasn’t working, FS looks... — read more
Not that there aren't options
I also have the need to vent sometimes because CVS has become a joke of a company. However, it is not that there are no other options. People I know found new jobs very quickly. I wonder how many actually tried but didn't manage to get another job?... — read more
DL’s, RD’s and corporate big shots
The big changes are to improve your “quality of life” correct? So how bout improving the stores quality of life with less threatening texts and conference calls. Literally a DL threatening for a RD manager to walk out of stores if service binders... — read more
Health is priceless
I just want to share my experience so it doesn't happen to someone else. Out of fear of losing my job and because it was difficult for me to start somewhere else from scratch, I somehow tried to suppress and ignore the stress I was experiencing... — read more
Sad place to be employed
This is one of my biggest mistakes when I applied here. I stayed only because I really believed that it would get better. Now I don't think so anymore? Does it make any sense anymore to be optimistic and believe that anything will change for the... — read more
About that Transformation…
It’s all over the internet that FS and RX are splitting. How many stores per district? Will some DL’s be let go? What happens to DPC, FCT, DSSM, TSM, DSPL? Do they get split or become eliminated?
Get out while you can
This has become one miserable place. I think even those who were most hesitant about whether to leave or stay a little longer will start leaving now?
News is out!
Here comes the big news!!!
Always reorganizing, always changing things
Can we for once stick with something long enough to see if it'll work in the long run?
Project transformation
What are we hearing about the FS/RX split? Will current DLs get to pick fs or rx? Will base pay, bonus and stock be affected?
Project Brady was bogus all along
Around May-June 2021, there was much ado on this forum about something called "Project Brady." A great masterful realignment involving Target. Immediately there were significant doubts from multiple corners, but the proponents kept it up. Meanwhile... — read more
CVS on resume
I am currently looking for a new job. It's depressing because I have a feeling that all my former colleagues got a new job faster than me. I hope that soon this place will be a thing of the past for me. I'm interested in whether you think CVS on... — read more
Software Development at CVS
What's is like to be part of the software development teams at CVS? Is the pay fair and hours being worked reasonable?
More closings this month
Several more locations will close this month. From what I'm hearing, others are being considered as well. I wish I knew how to tell if a location is in danger of being closed or not. Not knowing only makes me stress over something that probably won't... — read more
July 15 District Transformation
7/15 DLs will be finding out the new structure for districts as far as splitting front store and pharmacy with specified leaders
Mentally Abusive
You work for years building teams, functioning on a high level, then, they term you, but tell you you have to stay for months, until your last day they gave you in order to get your severance, In the meantime, they give the teams you built to lower... — read more
Pay raises
What’s the new start pay rate for shifts and supervisors and rx techs …when will it be in my Hr …if the starting rate is 15 for everybody else
Not feeling secure at all
After recent layoffs I feel less secure than ever and I’m pretty worried. You?

Coram, Omnicare...
I hope for the best but I expect the worst. After layoffs at Coram and Omnicare, I wonder what's next to dissolve?

Rarely has anyone got a promotion thanks to their hard work
In the meantime, I have given up hopes that it is possible to make at least a small career growth with hard work and commitment only. I think career growth at CVS is a myth. Is there anyone here who thinks he or she got promoted based on effort... — read more
Layoffs at Omnicare
It happened, for those who are interested. Around 800 people got their walking papers.
Such statements worry me
It's not the first time I heard that companies avoid hiring those who have worked at CVS for a long time. Someone's written it here too. Is that really true? I've been looking for a job for a few months now and statements that CVS doesn't look good... — read more
What happened yesterday?
I've heard and read there were layoffs at Omnicare, is that true?
