Pros

If you want to work someplace where you feel important, this is a great place for you. It is encouraged to promote from within and it isn’t rare to meet people in upper management that started at the store level. The commitment from the CEO to communicate openly with the organization is amazing. The brand mission of helping people is truly what is expected of every associate, pretty simple if you like to be helpful.

Cons

Biggest downside in my market is the preconceived notion perpetuated by our competition that the products on offer are somehow substandard because the prices are so much lower than other optical retailers.

Pros

Pretty easy work Company is modernizing Friendly environment Most patients are delightful

Cons

They used to be closed on Sunday, but now that's changed Store budgets are divided up between stores in the same district by the DM, which lends itself to favoritism when stores are given their monthly goals If you are the only LDO, you may end up working a LOT until you are able to find a second LDO
