Imagine that an Aetna worker is laid off at this point or even after the integration. What severance package would he receive Aetna’s or CVS’s. Nos sure if any of this was in the merger agreement and if it wasn’t what are the rules that are applied?
What if 2019 turns out to be MORE of a rebuilding year than initially thought?
Just remember that acorns that fall to the ground can get buried and grow into large trees! So small things can over time turn into big things. Cvs is facing pressure from many angles, so while the sky might not be falling it certainly is NOT blue!... — read more

What changes will we see at stores after Aetna's business in integrated into CVS?
Some changes are bound to reach the store level so I'm wondering what will they be. Could we be seeing eliminations of some store positions and the introduction of new ones? Realistically, how much is this going to impact regular store workers?

The CVS positions that overlap with Aetna’s most in danger of being cut?
Correct me if I’m wrong but think that there will be a mass wave of layoffs in those sectors which overlap with the same positions at Aetna. The only question is who will grab the shorter stick, the employees from the CVS side or Aetna’s
