      Sometimes the Grass is Greener

      Store general manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      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.
