Job: Retail Store Manager (United States)

If your thinking about working and or pursuing a career at CVS Pharmacy, Let me give you some first hand in-sight. Don't do it. The pay will not be worth the 60-70 hour, 6 and 7 day work week. You won't get vacation because your store is too understaffed and extremely too much work to do. We recently recieved over 4000 price changes and 159 hours of additional plan o grams to be completed by March 1st. This on top of a diminishing bonus pool that is next to impossible to attain. You will be required to transfer the daily take to the bank your self and beware if you get robbed at gunpoint like me they will crawl up inside you to make sure you were not involved in the robbery, some how they get priviledged information on you then they terminate you for not protecting company assets.

Do I sound disgruntled? Probably because for the last 27 days in a row I have not had a day of est off. Also 15 hour days are the norm with no meal or break. Managing is just a fascade at CVS, it should be called Clerking gone wild. You will have no control on shrink either as there is no loss prevention protection in the store, peopl come and go at will and steal everything you have. Don't work there, if you value your life.
