Pros

The only benefit to this "job" is the free sunglasses after every year of working for them

Cons

First thing I am going to say is AVOID THIS PLACE they will screw you over every chance they get. -Terrible pay, associates make minimum wage no matter how long they have been working there, Managers have been leaving because they dont get paid enough. -THey will get you to try and take the blame for their decisions in the company, if you take the bame for them you get fired, if you don't take the blame for them you still get fired -They do not give you a reference no matter how long you have been with the company. -They pride themselves on allowing their associates to express themselves but that is a lie, you will have no identity hile working there, no tattoos, hair colors, or peircings. -Working alone every shift, so unless you close the store (which you are told not to do) you don't get a lunch, or bathroom break -A lot of pressure to prevent theft when you are alone. -Eyewear is accessible to all without any form of security, there are no security tags on any of the product -Not enough hours to make a decent living. Associate shifts were 3 hour shifts, but they were still expected to be available 7 days of the week. -Regional Manager will come in screaming at you for the smallest thing. -You will be expected to drop everything when you are called in, it doesnt matter if you have made lans for the next day, if you dont make this job your first priority then they will fire you.

Pros

you get to make connections with some fun customers and you get a free pair of glasses once a year.

Cons

literally everything else is a con. management is very discriminatory and favors people who are closer in race/ethnicity. they do NOT take criticism well but will micromanage every single thing you do or don’t do. the stores are unkept and literally dirty in every way imaginable. you will never be offered a raise. you will never be offered to move up. if you’re part time, you can expect 4 hours a week and that’s it. if you ask for more hours you likely won’t get it but they will call you last minute (often hours before a shift) as soon as they need someone for coverage. commission is like maybe 1%. goals are sometimes unreasonable and do not adjust according to weather, events, traffic, etc. management constantly watches surveillance cameras throughout the day just to nitpick employees in real time.
