Pros

Currently the best reason to work at Lash Group is because it is a stable environment in an economy that is having some tough times right now. Lash Group always seems to be hiring and it is comforting to know that your job is fairly stable. The other good thing about working at Lash Group is the health benefits. They are by far some of the best benefits I have ever received from an employer and I know that I will covered for pretty much any situation. You also have the option of having two different vision insurances which is something that is important to me.

Cons

Lash Group does not do a good job of thanking all of the employees on a regular basis. They work the employees to the bone and don't do anything to say thank you. Something that would make Lash Group a better place to work at is if they provided praise and encouragement to their employees on a regular basis. Also, even though we are supposed to be helping patients there is a major focus on the money aspect of the business. If they focsed on helping the patients the best we can then the money would come in with that.

Pros

Great team and company atmosphere. People greet you in the hallways and morale always seems to be high. The satisfaction of doing a job that helps the lives of those in need is a major plus. The health benefits are above average but you still suffer with the weak salary.

Cons

The salary is not good at all. They do not provide cost of living adjustment for us in California. If you work on a team for part of the year and then switch to another team your bonus potential is pro-rated only for the time you spent on your new team. That might be easier to swallow if they told you this when you apply for another team. It would be an understatement to say that everyone gathers around the water cooler to complain about base pay and poor raises (well below industry averages).

Pros

I am no longer at this company (left last year). However, at the time my department offered flexibility in work schedules. I also liked that employees are given many opportunities to pursue professional development through education reimbursement program, on-the-job training and in-house resources.

Cons

The downsides mainly revolved around poor management. In the area I worked in (the Lash/Xcenda subsidiary -- a smaller company under the AmerisourceBergen umbrella), there were managers who had been there since the company was much smaller. These managers were unwilling to let go of 'what we always do'. There was a big problem with managers hiring personal friends, giving friends the best projects and professional education opportunities (when space was limited), and then promoting those friends to higher positions with better pay over staff with more related experience and higher performance. HR and Sr Management did little address employees' concerns over promotion practices, despite repeated complaints. On some teams, those promoted weren't capable of doing their new job efficiently and the work fell on those who were passed over (leading to a team of disgruntled and unmotivated employees).
