Pros

Can easily earn designer Sunnies with earned points. Depending on the generosity of your RM. Or get one with work anniversary certificate. If they remember to send it. Learn a lot about sunglasses. Free yearly eye exam.

Cons

Too much pressure to make unrealistic sales goals. Even if it’s a slow week/month. Current RM is horrible. You will get bullied by your manager if you can’t make sales goals. Low pay, low hours. If you get good hours like on a Sunday for example. You usually are paired with someone and they will try to take most of the sales. Since sale goals are so crazy high. Manager turns blind eye if you tell him/her. Never ending classes that must be completed monthly. Greedy company and wants each and every customers email address at the absolute minimum. Too many programs/items to force customers to join or purchase.

Pros

you get to make connections with some fun customers and you get a free pair of glasses once a year.

Cons

literally everything else is a con. management is very discriminatory and favors people who are closer in race/ethnicity. they do NOT take criticism well but will micromanage every single thing you do or don’t do. the stores are unkept and literally dirty in every way imaginable. you will never be offered a raise. you will never be offered to move up. if you’re part time, you can expect 4 hours a week and that’s it. if you ask for more hours you likely won’t get it but they will call you last minute (often hours before a shift) as soon as they need someone for coverage. commission is like maybe 1%. goals are sometimes unreasonable and do not adjust according to weather, events, traffic, etc. management constantly watches surveillance cameras throughout the day just to nitpick employees in real time.
