1-800 Contacts reviews

We are deeply concerned by this review. To the associate who shared it, we strongly encourage you to reach out to your HR Business Partner, Landon Langston, or any member of our HR leadership team. We’re here to listen and partner with you to identify solutions. We do not tolerate bullying as this goes completely against our Mutual Respect Policy. Our doors are open, and we hope to connect with you soon. To anyone reading this review, we want to address the statement that our internships are not paid, as this is incorrect. All our associates who accept an internship on another team or in a different department at our organization continue to be paid for their time. If any of our associates have questions about our internship opportunities, we invite you to reach out to your manager or HR business partner.

We appreciate you leaving a review and sharing both the wins and opportunities you’ve experienced during your time at our company. COVID has been an interesting challenge. Through the collective efforts of many, we have been focused on continuing to make 1-800 a great place to work. This always evolving work takes time, effort, and the collective collaboration of the community to build. We appreciate you lending your thoughts as we build the future of our company together. And we agree! Not being able to gather in person was a frustration shared by many. We are truly grateful to be in a place where gathering is now not only an option, but highly encouraged within teams. While our full 2023 events calendar is still being shaped, we do have some fun things in store (hint: our annual bowling tournament is right around the corner). If you’re interested in helping us plan and execute some of our in-person Utah events, we’d love for you to join our events committee (sign-ups went out in yesterday’s newsletter). We also encourage you to reach out to your leader, admin, and/or business partner and express your desire for more in-person gatherings at a team or department level. Sometimes a friendly nudge is all that’s needed. We also want to reassure you we hear your frustrations. We’ve already shared your review with your group’s business partners and our compensation and benefits team. If you’re willing to sit down and chat with us (virtually or in-person), we would love to further discuss your concerns. We invite you to reach out to Sarah Child (schild@1800contacts.com) or Peng Se Lim (plim@1800contacts.com), Senior HR Business Partners, or any member of the People Department. We’re here to listen and help identify solutions. Thank you again for sharing feedback and for being part of our team!
