Pros
The hours are better than most retail opticals, but still not great. They're fitting the on-site labs with nice equipment and for the most part, their lens inventory is of decent quality.
Cons
Where to start. First, the promises of profit sharing for management. One look at your new store's P&L and you'll soon figure out that's the first promise broken. Oh wait, the very fact your took this job at WAY below average salary should have been that first broken promise - but then you did take the job, so I guess that might be a bit much to assume. And those doctors next door - they paid little or nothing for that gig - it's pure turnkey and the entire setup is there to ensure the doctor is happy. But for god's sake, don't get on the wrong side of your doctor - that might be his office and the retail space is yours, but don't delude yourself and think the doctor doesn't have a direct line to your DM or RVP. And if the doctor doesn't like you, say bye bye birdie.
