Pros

Decent salary and bonus plan. Benefits are on par with others in DFW. Good place to start, but not long term (see Cons).

Cons

Most in Management are more concerned about their roles due to the impending merger with Luxottica later this year. Often Senior Executives are inconsistent in their priorities and subsequent guidance. Some have gone “tribal”, and are not in sync with other areas of responsibility’s initiatives, causing a waste of time and resources. This causes confusion, uncertainty and doubt in the related Line organizations. HR is pushing for younger and more diverse hires and promotions, often without regard to actual talent. Unfortunately, most senior level promotions are based on “who you know”, rather than on what you know.

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
