Pros

Free pair of cheap glasses and great benefits package.

Cons

Worst pay in the industry. They will work you 10-12 hours shifts 5-6 days a week with no incentives. The salary/hours worked puts you at min wage. Corporate managers have no idea what daily operations look like and constantly push impossible goals. High turnover for all positions due to the work load and low pay. Working here will destroy your career in optical. If you are serious about eye care and eye wear , don’t work here. If you have a family and need work life balance, don’t work here. If you don’t have a second income, don’t work here. If you value and respect yourself, don’t work here. Just don’t.

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.
