Pros

Every employer I've worked for says they put the customer and the associate first. 1-800 Contacts is the first that actually does. It's not just lip service here. I've had the opportunity to grow and advance in my professional career. The company is highly invested in providing development opportunities for associates and actually cares about where I would like to go with my career. Coaching, feedback and the freedom to empower associates to make decisions is something that has always been very unique to this organization.

Cons

We've been known as a company that leads out in our industry. When it comes to innovation, creativity and service, we have always been among the best. I think this has suffered a bit over the last year or so. The organization is definitely well on it's way to getting back to where we once were.
