Is CVS really as terrible as all of you say? I wouldn't know because I have no experience working for CVS. My only pharmacy experience so far has been working in the retail setting as an intern for a Giant Eagle grocery store this summer (fyi giant eagle has most of its stores in PA and OH). I have great working conditions. For a store that probably averages somewhere in the low 200s for scripts per day, we are usually open from 9-9, have double pharmacist overlap during the middle of the day on the busy weekdays, and are always very well staffed. When I work usually from afternoon to close, we have the pharmacist, at least 2 other pharmacy techs, and sometimes another intern besides me. It is only reduced down to 2 techs or an intern and a tech helping the pharmacist during the last 2 hours. I am always encouraged to take my breaks every day, and the pharmacists will make me take them during down hours if I haven't yet.
Wow sounds like retail nirvana.
Definitely not even close to a CVS or WAGS. How much money is that pharmacy losing?
