As someone who used to work at CVS (5 minute commute), who now works at Walmart (45 minute commute), I think I’m getting a CVS nostalgia... then again, maybe it’s all this COVID isolation
But in all seriousness, I can honestly say that when your in the thick of it, it all comes down to your crew, and the support from above. Both of which can change on a dime. Sure, the computer system or workflow may be different, but you do it long enough, you will get used to it.
Much more difficult to adjust to, however, are crappy coworkers. The poster who talked about Walmart staff (pharmacist and techs) being slow definitely has a point. Maybe it’s just my store, but a lot of the workers aren’t exactly efficient. I’d trade 2-3 of my current workers for one of my old techs at CVS.
Also, keep in mind that as pharmacy manager at Walmart, not only will you have to deal with headaches from market director, but also with members of front-store management. Yes, there are more than one. No, it’s actually more horrible than it sounds.
