Finally found out! But the way districts are re-aligned makes no sense, at least on the surface. Anyone know how they decided? Also, a lot of supervisors are looking/applying for positions! How did they decide who do the leader positions.

Finally had my call with District Manager about what's going on. She is staying on as District Leader. Rx Sup was given the option to leave or go back to a bench. Several other Rx Sups and DMs have been let go from the company. Our district went down... — read more

Have any FCT's out there been let go? I have heard conflicting stories that the training jobs are safe but then i've also heard that the training teams could be reduced. I'm just wondering what's going on out there with everyone else?

Here is my two cents on the executives and the overall state of the business. I think that Larry simply has not clue about retail. This will hurt retail in the long run, he does not get it. Helena and her extra-care program was fine but it is slowing... — read more 

Anyone else aware of a hiring freeze? Was told that we can not hire and that staff must pulled from RX or FS pools to fill gaps for now.

Hospitals going bankrupt, big Pharma laying off many thousands, clinics closing, etc, etc. This is much bigger than CVS. Welcome to a true downturn, and this one feels like it will be big.

CVS needs Pharmacists-- We need to all stand up and fight back. Company wide sick out. Hit them where it counts. Are we going to stand here and let them do this to so many good loyal employees? Who's with me?

Has anyone heard about minimum hour stores cut to below operating hours x 2? Making an already near impossible job more difficult.

I see a lot of people wanting to quit right away on their own due to stress, secrecy and uncertainties. But if you are already at a point where leaving CVS is a reality for you, then why not stick it out? If you do get laid off, you'll have severance... — read more
