Pros

The memory of what used to be. Being able to count on the day to day support of coworkers, who are in the same sinking boat.

Cons

An increasingly irresponsible company when it comes to spending and the loss of great coworkers that has resulted. A CEO that does not practice what he preaches. It is all surface. People no longer matter to this company. An all-in marketing campaign that has turned the fun and quirky eyebobs into Generic Eyewear Company X. A failing retail side of the business due to a poor business model from the start. Is anyone actually happy that works in the stores?!

Pros

-Product is great -People are wonderful and fun -Great employee discount on eyewear

Cons

-So many politics and secrets for such a small company -Lots of quality employees have left because they don't feel heard or feel like the company is moving forward -There used to be the opportunity for upward mobility but almost all new positions go to outside hires -There's an idea of values and culture but they are aspirational at the moment

Thanks for the feedback and review. I apologize for the tardy reply. I’m committed to improving communication and creating a comfortable and transparent environment to avoid any sense of politics or secrets within the organization. I’m disappointed to hear that your experience was otherwise and hope you feel comfortable enough to ask me questions; my door is always open to our team members. I agree that the people are the most amazing part of eyebobs, and I want to continue to do my best to focus on communicating with employees so that everyone feels heard. I hope that bringing back table meetings; changing our quarterly meetings to include all employees at one time; featured, eyebobber shout-out cards; and some of the other initiatives will help support my commitment to eyebobs’ culture, but please do share ideas if you think we need to do things differently. I’m working hard to seek feedback and genuinely care about this company, but I’m sorry that our efforts are not meeting your expectations.
