Licensed Optician; Lab Technician (Former Employee), Roseville CA – January 5, 2013
Pros: free pair of glasses.
Cons: just about everything.
I honestly can't believe this company has so many good reviews. Good temp job while going to school, but if your looking for a serious job look somewhere else. Lots of gossip and drama.. After 5 years with the company, ABO certified, excellent attendance and attitude, I made a whopping 13 dollars an hour. But it was a paycheck while I went to school, – more... and anyone taking a job here should just be a pitstop while you work for a better career. – less

Lack of diversity and job security
Executive (Former Employee), Michigan – December 16, 2012
You work an average of 45-60 hours a week on salary.
Management is insincere and gossip about terminated employees.
Lack of diversity in management positions.

Educational and fun work enviroment.
Eye Care Advisor (Former Employee), Deer Park, Il – December 11, 2012
Pros: educational and a lot of customer interaction.
Cons: it was either busy or slow, there was no in between.
I checked in patients and completed the pretest portion of their exam for the doctor. I also assisted customers in selecting new glasses as well as helped adjust the frames to give them the perfect fit.

Very driven work environment, friendly staff.
Sales Supervisor (Current Employee), New York, NY – November 20, 2012
Pros: flexible hours
Cons: few overtime opportunities
Depending on the shift, I either open or close the store. Typically, my position involves a large amount of coaching in sales strategy and customer service throughout the day so I am in constant communication with my co-workers as well as the store manager. Issues are far and few between with the exception of an occasional disgruntled customer but the – more... most gratifying part of the job is knowing that you took part in helping someone to see better and feel better. – less

Need not apply!
Licensed Optician (Former Employee), Cincinnati, OH – November 16, 2012
Pros: not many.
Cons: read the above statement again please.
They hire managers with no background in optics, not even licensed opticians, in many of their locations. The staff that keep these stores running never stay for long and typically relocate to a different retailer for better pay, better recognition, and for less corporate hassle.

selfish and money hungry management
lab tech (Current Employee), phoenix, az – November 14, 2012
Pros: friendly associates.
Cons: management #125
It's not the greatest place to work, but it has friendly associates, flexible hours for part time. If you want to work for a manager that will stick up for the employees LUXOTTICA, that is why this company is based in Milan, Italy they train their general mangers to be cowards especially the new gm in phoenix store #125. The gm before him was great – more... she was probably the best manager I have ever worked for until she was transferred than everything went down the drain. – less

Productive and and very good place to work
Lab Technician (Current Employee), Harlingen, TX – October 27, 2012
Pros: free pair of prescription glasses and getting to work on the lab
Cons: when were short handed one person on retail and lab and were swamped on the floor and lab jobs
The day start with opening procedures towards machinery maintance and properly check if all are in working condition in order to operate one hour job glasses. Special orders are recieved and ready to inspect for power and imperfections, then they are ready to process. I have learned to inspect quality on jobs and to check on tolerances if they pass – more... inspection. Management and co-workers are in the same plan to make goal and interact with customers to assure highest customer quality performance. The hardest time of the job would be when I have to multitask on the floor then go to thhe lab and work on the one hours and speacial orders. Even though working is really fun there , I like working there because you get to work with your hands and enjoy customer conversation. – less

It's a Job
Sales Associate (Current Employee), Green Bay, WI – October 24, 2012
Not a bad place to work, but definitely a stepping stone in my young career. Would have been better if management was more consistent. We had different managers and regional managers etc every few months.

really productive and fun environment
Eyewear Consultant (Current Employee), New York, NY – October 19, 2012
Pros: 45 min break
Working with people helping them see while looking good in there eye wear. I've learned about labs different types of lenses including contact lenses. About different types of eye diseases. My co-workers are amazing we are a team we work together in which i enjoy. The hardest part of the job is when the labs are delaying on jobs which delays the costumers – more... eye wears from coming in sooner. the fun part about my job is getting to see people happy once they found the right part of glasses. Also when new items and technology comes out. – less
