Productive and great place to work
Web Support/ Email Representative (Former Employee), Richardson, TX –
Pros: rewords
a typical work day would be responding to emails and assist with incoming calls on a daily bases. I learned alot working in with PBM. Loved the management and co-workers, it was more then going to work everyday, it was family. The hardest part of my job was seeing close people leave. The most enjoyable part of my job was working OT with my co-workers – more...  as a family to complete our dead line at the end of the day helping customers. – less

Overworked underpaid
Assistant Store Manager (Former Employee), Warren, MI –
I was a 45hr salary Assistant manager and typically worked 6-7 days from 45-80 hrs a week. The co-workers were great. Do not expect to have a life outside of work.

jimmel – May 22, 2012

I worked as a store manager for this company for 3 years . I was supposed to work 45 hours I ended up working 70 to 80 hours. Working for this company was like tough. Anytime I heard the district managers name I started shaking. I use to wake up at 2am and started thinking about How terrible my day was going to be like. Even though we had paid holidays I never took a holiday. At some point in time I ended up using my vacation hours to pay for payroll because the district manager threatened to document me when I went over my hours. IT was a blessing when I was fired and my unemployment was approved. My wife said I was the first person to rejoice being terminated. Please research this company . call the managers talk to them. Stay away.

Worst company to work for!
Staff Pharmacist (Former Employee), Cherry Hill, NJ –
Pros: benefits and compensation
Cons: everything else
I worked for them for 22 years. Over that time I watched them go from a wonderful customer oriented company into a huge corporation that made numbers their primary focus. They have gone as far as having us call customers at home and practically begging them to refill their prescriptions to increase numbers. While doing this they cut pharmacists and – more...  technician hours and expected us to give the same level of service with less help and still bringing in more scripts. This made for a very dangerous situation for the customers well being and safety. When I voiced my concern on the issue I was simply blown off. At that point I new it was time to find another job. The quality of their field management has also greatly declined over the years also. Terrible company to work for, poor quality of life! – less

Management / Shift Supervisor (Former Employee), Orlando, FL –
Managing CVS offered a grand perspective on different ways to apply customer service. This company is a staple in many families lives and that is important for the success of our communities. It also helps that most stores offer services 24 hours. In this setting I had the opportunity to learn a great deal and see the effectiveness of our communities – more...  in a different way. – less

CVS Caremark is a good company to work for.
Enrollment Coordinator (Current Employee), Irving, TX –
A typical day is usually busy. There are always deadlines to meet and updates to adhere to. This makes adapting to change as strength that is considered a weakness for most people. Co-workers are nice and are always trying to do their best and are always willing to help assist. The hardest part of the job is when mistakes happen, and the results affect – more...  the customer. – less

It's a ok place to work.
Pharmacy Technician (Former Employee), Miramar, FL –
Pros: big nice cafeteria.
Cons: alot of work.
A typical day at work was challenging. You have to stand for 8 hours and always stay busy. I learned that it's best to work at your own pace to cut down on mistakes. The cool thing about the job is they have a big cafeteria so you don't have to worry about your diet or nutrition.

Productive and work friendly
Data Entry Specialist (Current Employee), Rockville, MD –
Pros: great benefits
Cons: not enough of a challenge
A typical day at work for me would be getting there at least 15 minutes early to prep for my day ahead. I usually work for for two and a half hours creating cases for patients and following up with the doctor offices before I take a five minute break to get a snack from the companies vending machine then its back to work for another two hours before – more...  taking my lunch break then it back to working hard for another three hours.

Ive learned a lot work in my current role over the years as far as dealing with different personalities on a daily basis and as far as the different type of insurances dealt with and learning about each medication we provide.

I have a lot of respect for my management team, they have thought me a lot over the years and they have helped me come a long way in my current role. They are always there to guide me and assist me when ever there's an issues that I may need assistance with.

I enjoy working with my co workers. I work in a very work friendly environment where everyone gets a long great and always willing to lend a helping hand. Everyone has a great personality and great work ethic.

The hardest park of my job would be to leave for the day with out completing a task, that why I make sure I have every task put in front of me completed before my shift ends for the day.

The most enjoyable part of my day is just learning something new everyday and providing great customer service and satisfaction to our clients. – less

Customer Service Representative (Former Employee), Scottsdale, AZ –
This job is helping beneficiaries with their Medicare part D plan. I'd answer the phone and answer basic questions of Medicare but with this company I focused on their silverscript medicare pdp plan. Leading customers to the correct department or even disenrolling or enrolling them into the plan. The management was a delight and showed me alot of respect – more...  because of the knowledge I do have in this subject. The co-workers as well were a delight and I truely enjoyed them. The hardest part of theis job was...I didn't have a hard part for this job. I think the best part was being able to share my knowledge and seeing the other side of the coin sort of speak. – less
