Business outlook
Pros
Flexible scheduling is available. They sell chic, good quality products and the employee discount can even be used on clearance stock. The nicest glasses I own came from LC. I learned a lot, but mostly on my own. It was a great place to work while I was in optometry school.
Cons
There is a wide variety of management styles among GMs. Some are not very friendly to scheduling needs where some are awesome. There is the usual propagation of ineffective managers who stay employed in spite of their lacks. The amount of commission is very low and gets lower if the store fails to make sometimes ridiculous sales goals (at least when I was there we were expected to make goals based on a strong economy when it had clearly tanked).
