Pros

Super easy job. Just smile and customers love you. One pair of glasses free a year and 50% off the rest of the time.

Cons

Horrible labs.. constantly getting glasses wrong, it seems like the labs do not check the glasses before they are sent out. When I was working there it seemed that at least 40% of the glasses prescriptions had something wrong with it but we were constantly having to tell customers to "get used to them" or the quality of the frames themselves is crap. even the "designer" expensive frames like ray ban are horrid. Oh and don't you dare have an issue that your general manager won't help you with. Neither will your district manager or the corporate office. pretty much they do not care if it does not affect them. Also next to no room to move up in the company. They will always hire outside instead of promoting from within.
