RPH in CA says there’s a new contest for them and their area stores. The CVS signing up the most prescriptions for ready fill program will get 40 extra tech hours – the catch is the hours are taken away from other stores. As RPH says CVS is encouraging employees to screw other employees to get extra tech hours. Disgusting way to pit employees against each other. But then again there are lots like me that could care less
Contests are nothing new in the corporate world, but normally the winner of the contest wins something… not to the detriment of the other employees involved in the contest. In this case, it can be to the detriment of the patients at the stores/employees that were the “losers”
IMO.. the real loser in ALL THE 24 HR STORES .. is that all of these new auto-refills will be filled by the over night shift – labels will start spitting out at 00:01 every day and most likely.. the additional tech hours will be added to the “day shift”.
Will this competition just create more discontent among the vast majority of the Rx dept staff and be counter productive?
