Pros
I love the people I work with on a daily basis and I have the best team. People ask what I love about my job or what keeps me here and it truly is the people. Everyone is on the same team and working towards the same goal. It's also very rewarding to see all of the internal promotions of associates and our commitment to their career paths. For me personally, I have an amazing leader and peer group. And having come from a retail environment, I am loving that I have the balance where I am able to see my family as well as live a healthier life.
Cons
We have the same challenges you will find with any company like accountability and performance standards. We have high standards and want to be a successful thriving profitable company which some do not want. We are a growing company so we have a fair amount of change-working here you do need to be flexible & adaptable along with willing to change. We could use more collaboration across functional departments, the Home Office, and the Field but that is a focus as we build out the organization. Our one con would be our benefits as we need to work on those.

Pros
Benefits Pay They let you practice however you would like
Cons
Company has definitely changed in the last 3 years. Focus for management has become more and more about KPIs and less about the good of the patient. They keep pushing for more but with less staff or backup. They preach for the doctors to be the leaders of the practice but when we make suggestions on how to improve the business our ideas go on deaf ears.

Pros
Commission... if you are sales minded this can be a good chunk of chance Some good people to work with Can have good upward growth, they do promote from within a good amount
Cons
This is a business, and they should value making money I don't disagree there. But it is ALSO health care. Emphasis on same day solutions often ends with patient dissatisfaction. Expect people to get frustrated with you, and no guidance from management on troubleshooting issues. Office drama, every location I was farmed out to had it's own drama. People are bullied out of office on a whim. And any actual issues with coworkers results in management using the same bullying strategies rather than actually solving an issue. Understaffing resulting in pressure to work through breaks and extended hours District and regional managers for this area do Not view female employees as highly as male coworkers and managers. They will nit pick and talk down to you noticably more.

- 3.0Jul 29, 2023General ManagerCurrent Employee, more than 10 years
Pros
Field associates are fantastic to work with and care about what they offer patients. Most give over 100% daily and appreciate team members that do the same. Feels like family in the offices.
Cons
Numbers, no direction on where we are going, and not the same as it was when other executive leaders were in charge. Its a job now and not a career. Hard to grow with the company now. Many new higher-ups do not know our culture and often do not understand the optical verbiage but can make decisions based on experience in unrelated industries.

Pros
Fervently embraces cost containment, payroll management, pro bono manager retention and employee alignment. This is especially true for those observing a practice acquisition, transitioning, onboarding, office integration and eventual downsizing by the parent LLC. Read up on basic economic concepts in order to understand why MED does what it does. Especially do this between TicToc videos and Facebook if you are on the clock reading this. Become exceptionally familiar with the concept of marginal employee productivity before airing grievances while being overfed and understaffed because I am sure this is how Goldman Sachs successfully built their company - and ate and swallowed yours. KPI tracking and efficient employee productivity without sacrificing significant capital outlay has immensely aided margins. MED excels at maximizing profit for owners, shareholders and organized optometry with an unparallelled can-do attitude by leveraging and enhancing an extrordinary debt to equity ratio and by making significant and noteworthy contributions to a lean labor market.
Cons
Owned by Too Big to Fail, they are Capital Vision Partners and not Employee Vision Partners for a reason - so get off your phones and interoffice chats and instead of complaining, please consistently do your jobs. Google Andi Owen. Your CEO isn't THAT bad.

Pros
I've been able to be promoted multiple times over the years. At the home office, there's a strong culture of work life balance and great camaraderie among the team.
Cons
The higher up in the company you go, the more political and less transparent the culture becomes
