Improved Knowledge

On a typical Morning Start with checking of all appointments for the day. organize all the necessary stationery to be used on the day. Having a morning Coffee with colleagues while we prepare and discuss what to look forward to on the particular day. Lunches had at the premises most of the time. On a hectic day one doesn't think of anything else but to provide great service to our clients. We strive to keep our clients as happy as possible from the time they walk through the door until they leave. We have a very close relationship with my colleagues, we are a small group so we ensure that our days are always peaceful and we communicate very well to ensure that we sort out all the misunderstandings that occur during the course of the day. What i enjoy the most is seeing our clients and employer happy with what we do.

Pros: Great Opportunity to Grow within the company as it is a big franchise

Great learning environment

My company works the following way: I work in a fast paced environment. I get given a brief about a project that needs to be done, I design it using Adobe programmes. This involves designs, mock-ups, what it looks like, how it functions etc, as this gets presented to my marketing manager. We chat and feed ideas off of each other. Once we are both happy with it, it either gets sent to CEO or we pitch the ideas to him and the rest of the team. Once they are happy it gets put into production and final print ready, web or development team is put together.

Pros: Funds for learning new skills
Cons: Tight deadlines

Excellent learning curve

To work in any optometry practice is an experience. There is always something new to learn. Hours are relative and not as late as other mall hours. Salary is below average. Very small practice and with that comes allot of managerial issues.

Pros: Always something to learn
Cons: Bad management
