Pros

when the store makes the weekly sale goal, the commission is good. if not you make basically nothing, no matter how much you personally sold. health insurance is available to ft employees, and it pretty good coverage. Receiving a free pair every year is awesome, and if you work with a good doctor and coworkers it can be a very enjoyable working environment. Will reimburse for ABOC certificate.

Cons

When the store does not make plan commission is near to nothing, maybe $20 a week. Upper management likes to keep as many people at pt as possible, although you will be told you are up for ft. You are often expected to stay late, and upsell every single customer. If they do not upgrade you will be "coached" on what you did wrong. Although it is medical equiptment, it is treated only as sales. Also never enough staffing, forced to forgo a lunch and even breaks a few days a week.

Pros

when I first started it was a very employee based company. Great discounts, great benefits. Regional managers were swift to help if we had questions and offer support

Cons

Since last year the environment has changed vastly. They no longer care about the employees and only want results. They have raised prices and insurances dont cover as well as they used to and they expect the managers to just force people to buy. If you dont make your monthly goals youre put on a PIP and the Regionals are constantly threatening you to make them. The work life balance does not exist. There is a group chat with your fellow store managers hosted by the Regional and if its your day off they still expect a response. I know it comes from the top down but the micromanaging has gotten so awful. Down to the minute you must be scheduled correctly. I have been here for 3 years and have never had a positive review even though our store has exceeded its goals. Doesnt matter to them, they expect more and more. They raise goals constantly and the only answer they have for making sure we hit those goals is no one leaves, even though they can get the same product from a competitor at a much lower cost.
