Pros

The people here are great.

Cons

Our benefits are expensive and Cigna is a terrible company to work with. Our vision coverage is confusing and pitiful for a company that manufactuers the best lenses in the world. Only one member of the family can get a frame and lens package each year. If I get glasses one year, my husband can't under our benefits. You don't control your own destiny here. Instead of applying for a job that you aspire to have, you are placed in a position based on your time here, your experience and what your manager may know about your career aspirations. This works sometimes, but seems to cause a lot of angst in the marketing department (the only department that works this way).

Horrible base salary Horrible culture Discriminatory Was not impressed by Leadership team Seemed very arrogant but most unprofessional group of people I've ever witnessed in my 25+ year career Cult like Training program was like boot camp and trainers were unprofessional, had cliques, and were insulting These people are brainwashed If you are not brainwashed you don't fit in If you don't drink their cool aid they do everything in their power to discredit your abilities and let you go I have PTSD from my short time there They are brow beaters and not encouraging
