      Great company to work for. Their vision "We take care of our associates, so they take care of our customers."

      Pros

      Onsite cafeteria, film festivals, summer events, parties, recognition, the list goes on! The company is growing with glasses.com which has given more growth opportunity in the last year than we have seen in the 6 years I've been here and it will continue to grow.

      Cons

      Sometime hours can be long but we undestand the vision and sometimes it's required. They try to make sure we are recognized when major projects are accomplished and we try to have work/life balance whenever time allows.

      Employees treated well, but work is frustrating

      Pros

      Competitive pay for the state. Good health benefits. In-house cafeteria w/ subsidized lunch/dinner and free breakfast. on-site fitness center w/ personal trainers.

      Cons

      Even though employees are treated well, the work is frustrating because the company is not very good at working cross functionally. Finance has different plans/ideas than Marketing, which has different ideas than customer service, etc. etc. Way too much bureaucracy for a company this small.

      Just another call center

      Rx specialist

      Pros

      The lunch room, gym, schedule flexibility, and summer party are great perks of the company. They work hard to make sure their employees are taken care of in that respect. As a general call center or Rx agent, it allows you to maintain a good balance between home life and work.

      Cons

      This is just another call center that is a good option for people who want schedule flexibility, either for going to school, single parents, or a part-time job. Long-term careers are not really much of an option, and the pay is poor in comparison to other call centers. They'll try to tell you that other companies won't treat you as well, but don't believe it. There are better jobs out there.
