AMAZING CULTURE!

Pros

I am so impressed by the culture at 1 800 Contacts! I started a little less than a month ago and I already feel like I am part of the contacts family. There are always fun and inviting activities going on in the grill, game room, gym, and outside on the sport courts. Collaboration is highly encouraged and people genuinely want each other to succeed. Team dynamics are always positive and fun, which makes me want to come to work every day.

Cons

I love working here. I do not have many constructive things to say.

Pros

Very methodical in their decision making from the top down. Contacts has a very good program for focusing on their talent, and they know how to make work fun.

Cons

Senior management is primarily financial people, so as a marketing professional, there was a little lack of creativity, and they need a strong CMO to really make the firm strong. Without that, the rest of the executive team will run over marketing and things can get a little dull on the creative strategy front.
