Pros

A few good coworkers and pretty lenient with time off requests

Cons

Horrible pay, little training for new hires. Upper management (regional) a Liar. Store GM lazy and no optical qualifications. Rarely will help during busy times. Customers are entitled and ignorant. Impossible to meet company goals so forget about making any kind of money. 1% commission on everything you sell? Sad. Poor quality control for eyewear and contact lens orders can take weeks to arrive. Dirty store and restrooms are an embarrassment.

Pros

Decent team, regional management did their best

Cons

Abusive patients, extremely low pay. The company's "two for one and a free eye exam" deal is deceptive being that it does not include any lens options other than the bare minimum, and it limits you to a certain section of (very ugly and cheaply made) frames. Patients, upon realizing that this deal was misleading, would often take it out on the staff.
