Pros

Meet new people, learning to be optician interesting & fun. good insurance benefits, people I work with are good people, Manager flexible on hours worked

Cons

LOW Pay, if we have no appointments get sent home that doesn't pay the bills, constantly threatened with our jobs if we don't make budget which is totally unrealistic, cheat you out of holiday pay just because they fall on a Sunday which we are closed. Reade Fahs motto "happy employees make happy customers" must be a farce. They think little of the people in the stores who deal with the public and their marketing department is incompetent . Closed a NJ lab to use one in Hong Kong & Mexico, so much for it being America's Best. I hope that one day when the economy is better there is a mass exodus from this company to do anything else. I would NOT recommend this company to anyone on the ground floor.

Pros

Pretty easy work Company is modernizing Friendly environment Most patients are delightful

Cons

They used to be closed on Sunday, but now that's changed Store budgets are divided up between stores in the same district by the DM, which lends itself to favoritism when stores are given their monthly goals If you are the only LDO, you may end up working a LOT until you are able to find a second LDO
