The best part about this will be the sups who are demoted and won’t follow the **** they have been harping on. I can’t wait to call on there MCE scores and say what happened?? Don’t care about the customer?? Wait what? What do you mean no time for PCQ calls lol this is awesome.
i have not heard that yet. When will this change happen?
... And yet, if I had been the one to post this based on reading it in a news article, hearing it from a pharmacist I know, etc., all I would receive from the other posters are personal attacks against me that revolve around some variation of "oh well, at least even the pharmacists who are going to have their hours cut/be fired are still in a better position than YOU." This is reality: facts are facts, regardless of who posts them. And every time a piece of news that follows the general theme of "more pharmacist positions being eliminated," "more pharmacist hours being cut," etc., it becomes even more apparent that I and anyone else who has dropped out of pharmacy school to pursue virtually anything else has made an unbelievably good call. How's provider status legislation coming along, BTW?
A lot of Rx Sups had one on ones today to see if they’ll be promoted to DM or let go. It will slowly come out but everyone involved signed confidentiality forms so its going to be hard to find more info until its official.In January. It was finalized on Tuesday on a conference call. It's not going to be pretty. This is part of a series of massive budget cuts by CVS.

Good. They should do some actual work instead of harassing people about stupid metrics that don’t even matter.Rumor I'm hearing. And by rumor, this is the word from my supervisor, who is going to be my overnight partner now, lol.
Looks like Rx Sup and DM being combined. Smaller districts to be formed.
Looks like a bloodbath is coming for them.
There will be small districts. About 14 stores and just 1 field leader per now instead of DM/Sup. Some AVP’s got canned so all the reporting is going to change. Everyone is hush hush about it right now so details will come out slowly. CVS loss prevention already took a hit.wow, thats a slap in the face to the sups and DMs..who's gonna pass out the koolaid now?

Don't sprain your shoulder from patting yourself on the back too hard.
They’ll get a option to step down. If you’re a DM and not licensed more than likely you’ll be my customer now. Give all 5’s ya lil b*tches now lolSo the supervisors that aren't getting promoted to DMs are getting fired? They aren't even being given the luxury of stepping down to floating?
I checked my old sups Twitter accts and they are now protected or deleted. LOL
Where's NateRobinson?

I have zero sympathies for these sp/dm.Cruel, cruel form of poetic justice lol. Hail corporate long enough to get stabbed in the back. These people have families!
They didn’t care when they were the ones stabbing people in the back.Cruel, cruel form of poetic justice lol. Hail corporate long enough to get stabbed in the back. These people have families!

Offical word
Both SVP positions eliminated. AVP’s cut from 11-7.
Finding out some were not offered. Just given a severance package.So if Rx Sups are being offered RPh positions, what's gonna happen to the RPhs currently in those positions?
Company wide. CA has also the same fate.Is this for all of the states, including CA?
Believe or not this is great for CVS pharmacist. WAGS did this in 2015 and it proved to be much better for both pharmacy manager and staff rph. We no longer have Pharmacy supervisor breathing down our neck and pressuring us to meet KPIs. We have much more freedom and independence. You'll have fewer people in charge and they will have to supervise so many stores that they won't have time to nitpick about everything little issue. Matter of fact, I get to see my current supervisor maybe once every 4 months or longer.
Hmmmm, I just checked, and this user's IP address is registered to a "Lenny Merlot"

trying to win the “pricing war” with all them discount card hurts alotThe reason they are making these cuts is because filling scripts is becoming less profitable. The sups getting cut is just a symptom of the real problem, and the real problem will eventually impact everyone. I could care less what they do to middle management but the fact that they have to do this is concerning.
