Pros

National Vision is a great company. They have good benefits and rewards for their employees.

Cons

There is never any room for advancement within the company. No matter how qualified you are for the job, they always hire from the outside. They do not pay well at all and they do not give fair raises, no matter how well your store did the previous year. I do not recommend this company if you plan to advance, more than likely they will hire someone in from another company that is not qualified to do the job.
