      Pros

      Unlimited vacation and flexible working hours.

      Cons

      Big layoffs with more rounds to come. Upper management doesn't tell the truth. The culture is extremely toxic. It's every man for himself. Essilor is being subsumed by Luxottica. Some departments won't survive the merger. Employees who survived this month's layoff are starting to look for new jobs.

      Pros

      if you need a job this is for you. there's really no pros to this csr position. your are pretty much stuck with no room for advancement. 1 PRO- you meet some very nice accounts that actually make your day at work enjoyable. co-workers at the lab

      Cons

      HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION UPPER MANAGEMENT NEEDS TO TAKE THE TIME TO GET TO KNOW THE EMPLOYEES. BENEFITS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE YOU CAN NOT LEARN ABOUT A NEW PRODUCT IN 24 HRS AND GET A MYSTERY CALL AS WELL. MAKES NO SENSE. YOU CAN'T BE TOO COMFORTABLE WITH ONE THING WITH THIS COMPANY THINGS CONSTANTLY CHANGE . REQUESTING TIME OFF IS A PAIN. NO MORE THAN 6 IN THE ENTIRE CC IS RIDICULOUS. SHOULD BE PER LAB HOW EVER WHEN THE(CCC) TOOK OVER IT WAS A MESS. THE LAB AND ESSILOR CCC ARE NOT ON THE SAME PAGE. THAT LEAVES REPS IN A WHAT TO DO CASE ,BECAUSE, LAB MANAGEMENT SAYS DO IT THIS WAY AND CCC MANAGEMENT SAYS DO IT ANOTHER WAY. ESSILOR NEED STRUCTURE AND ORGANIZATION. THIS COMPANY IS A MESS. IT'S UNFAIR AND UNORGANIZED.

      Pros

      Most of your co workers are very passionate about the business and do an excellent job each day. The mission is worth working for.

      Cons

      Over the past 5 years this company has become so bureaucratic that 90% of the time is spent on figuring out how to get things done vs actually accomplishing things. Disfunctional leadership can’t agree on clear priorities and resource allocation. Red tape at every turn. Talent management is a joke. Current system rewards corporate bullies and narcissists who make terrible bosses.
