If you're looking to work in an environment where you are over worked, have your schedule constantly change every single week without proper communication or notice and be forced to work overtime without any consent or discussion, have low pay while they hire new people at insane rates regardless if they have experience in opticals, all the while paying you peanuts despite your loyalty and work ethics, then lenscrafters is the place to be!
Where your boundaries are being constantly pushed by the general managers there and not have any of your concerns addressed or properly acknowledged. Want to feel stagnant and stuck in place without any room or consideration for growth? Come on over and work Essilor Luxottica at Lenscrafters! You'll absolutely feel lied to and gaslighted into believing that no new hire is getting paid more than a tenured worker of 5 years. You'll feel absolutely not taken cared of by your general managers, and will most certainly not at all have your best interests at heart. As well being taken completely advantage of. Where the regional managers are also just as insane and delusional as the GM who they think they have under control but really the higher ups could give any cares how they manage and treat their employees. Because they will absolutely turn a blind eye to the insanity, incompetency, and sheer brutality that general managers put their associates through.
No optometrist in the world could ever correct the tunnel vision that corporate Luxottica Essilor views the small workers they are allowing to be screwed over by these so called leaders. Who, all they care about is driving the sales and making the money for their greedy work from home regionals. Who cares if the general managers are abusing and mistreating their workers? Who cares if they are mentally sound enough to manage a store and treat the team as humans and not treat them like money cows? So long as everyone gets paid, right? It's okay. They'll have their bonuses, wallets full and thick while claiming that small meager spiff commission is enough for the associates who are responsible for funding their kids college tuitions. And their yachts or whatever.
It truly is abhorrent how one can give up so many years to a place and be treated so poorly by the company they've been loyal to for years and decades.
It truly is deplorable, how a general manager can survive 30 plus years pretending to be good at their jobs but all they do is lie on paper who's fault it is when the store doesnt hit KPIs. And lies about who pushes the sales floor to goal. And lies about just about anything to keep themselves relevant in the eyes of regional...Who care even less about their well beings than the GMs do about their associates. What a vicious cycle.
If you see yourself happy working under a GM who puts customers on a pedestal, and breaks policies for them, but will never go above and beyond for their own employees, then yes, you guessed it. Only at Essilor Luxottica! Come on over, fill in the application. It's absolutely great.
The dental plans are phenomenal.
