What do you like best about the leadership team?

They guided us in path and right way

Still hangs on to grass roots culture

The regional manager and up are great. They take care of things when needed

They listen to every one

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

My leadership team needs to be better at communication and follow through.

Everything. This company is everything that's wrong with eyecare

Andee Doty is in no position to be a general manager. She doesnt have the knowledge, and is unprofessional and uses company time for personal time. Melinda Cane (District Manager for Dallas) ignores concerns about Andee's misbehavior but puniahes others for speaking out.

Choosing general and district managers

they need to take more accountability and own up to their flaws as well as lead by example.

Review from Sales Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

Covered under my spouse. But prior to benefits great

The health insurance is okay

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

lack of communication about company policies

I was treated very poorly and I just resigned, so nothing would make me feel better.

Better benefits package is needed. Healthcare is subpar, Dental is limited coverage

My experience and knowledge should be taken into consideration

Fair wages across the board and fair raises for current employees compared to new hires.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

We do what's best for the customers we don't try to up sale which keeps people coming back for years

the best team in my team communications.

They look to me as a veteran and for help on what they feel is difficult

All Receptionist, Optician, and Technicians are knowledgeable

All of the women i work with a very dedicated and hard workers. Lately, they have been very down and moral has not been good due to the general manager's bullying and manipulation tactics. It is a very toxic environment.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Coworkers are best friends with manager so they literally stand around gossiping instead of working. Because they know that when im done with my work management will make me go help them. & if its not completeled by my 8hour shift i need to stay & do 10hours to finish there stuff while everyone goes

Waste of time to chatter about nothing

Better communication with employees and manager

Don't talk behind other people's back

They could work harder and more diligently. They could be more professional.

Review from Customer Support Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

you can practice your culture

The mangers have finally started a united front.

Employees who no longer work there

None the company pretends to care about people but cares only to sell a pair of glasses

They care about the employees training and growth

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Management needs to actually talk to its employees instead of some chat window thats robotic

Favoritism and poorly trained management team

Review from Customer Support Dept

Better management would make everything better

Review from Sales Dept

The culture needs to become more employee appreciative instead of just numbers and bottom dollar.

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

When i was interviewed there was a different manager and they were willing to work with me to make sure i could do the job correctly. new manager just expect you to know how to do everything and wants 100% all the time no matter what.

Angel is cery nice. But they fail to tell people the truth. Its a seasonal position we dont always have work. Then when we do get slammed with work we are expected to dray 10 hours. They notify us 10 minutes before an 8 hour shift that we need to stay 10 hours. They also lie about the hours

good condition and feel free to answer the questions

I was put at ease right from the start.

It was fairly quick and easy.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

No interview was needed hire anybody

Needs to be more thorough

On top of the 30 day probationary period before someone becomes permanent, they need to screen better. Better questions, more in depth analysis on these people who should know this is a medical office first and foremost. Should be DOCTOR oriented, clean, efficient and professional. No stores are.

Review from Sales Dept

Contract people that are in college

Review from Sales Dept

Review from Sales Dept

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

Employees need to be valued and respected above the management and money being made by commission.

'Patients' are to be treated like cattle. Herd as many of them through as fast as you can, regardless of the health or well-being.

Communication listening to complaints from employees

Poor quality turn around time to long

Review from Customer Support Dept

Have better quality materials. Have better quality UPPER management. Their systems and models are archaic and embarrassing compared to other companies. Get with the times on technology especially.
