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.
