Pros

Essilor offers an extremely good benefits package. They are also the leader in the Industry and offer some of the best available products.

Cons

Management needs to revamp their style. They buy up laboratories that work and immediately bring in new management that screws everything up. No matter how successful you are you always have to worry about your job security.
