Pros

Helps all new employees get Abo Certified, lots of training incentives in the first year. There are some great people that work there.

Cons

Corporate does not care enough to see what is really happening in some of their offices. Some upper management is allowed to harass and intimidate their employees with no consequences. Hostile working environment in certain offices is ignored at the price of good opticians. High turnover rate without taking notice of the abuse some employees are exposed to. Corporate preaches patient care but then expects certain numbers to be met, regardless of patient care.

Pros

Worked with some great people.

Cons

Upper management is too busy being insulted and hurt by any critisms to actually try to create a truly comfortable relationship with their own employees. The turnover is high because of inconsistent management and the pressure put on the staff to make up for their unwillingness to invest in a professional appearing offices. They hire people who lack the skillset to perform a job that management itself does not understand. Their employees are pitted against each other for sales and allowed to neglect other important aspects of the job.

Pros

Commission is available and if you’re good at sales then it can be profitable enough to just get by. I encountered 2 good managers out of 10+.

Cons

This company is very narrow minded in how they view and treat people of color. If you’re smart and an achiever and happen to be of color you can expect to get lied on and manipulated against. Managers do not support you but instead gossip about you. Poor communication about what is expected from you as an employee. Not a very stable company at all and will let you go without warning, even after several years of dedicated service. Its sad because the owner does not treat people the way under him do. HR acts like they care but wont really take a stand against unequal treatment.
