Culture & values

Pioneering
You try to improve things, by doing things better or more simply celebrating both innovation and failure. You take the lead and stay positive in the face of challenges and change.
Proud
You take pride in doing things properly. Deeply committed to the highest standards with a relentless drive for consistency in quality and detail.
For all
You treat everyone with the same warmth and respect, and without ego. You listen and communicate openly and honestly, respecting everyone’s opinion.

Benefits

Fair and transparent salaries
A salary policy as crystal clear as our lenses. We are a living wage employer, with a commitment to maintaining an equitable salary gap, currently a difference of 4x between the lowest and highest earners in the company.
Quarterly frame allowance
You will receive your first pair of complementary spectacles on your first day, and then you will be eligible for one frame every quarter if you are full time, or one frame every other quarter if part time.
Access to Thrive: Mental Wellbeing
We have partnered with the award winning mental health service to provide digital therapy and support to all Cubitts employees. For a healthy mind as well as healthy eyes.
Cubitts Academy training
We reserve 1% of our revenue for training, a resource hub for all areas of learning, from education in spectacles to business training. Led and delivered by our internal experts, the Academy facilitates Cubitts staff in achieving excellence.
Bonuses and share options
Annual bonuses are paid as a percentage of company profit, and are shared with everyone. If you work for Cubitts for two years, you automatically receive options, irrespective of grade or level.
Access to You Can Now Training programme
You Can Now is an educational platform with unlimited live, virtual courses and on-demand resources to help self-development and networking.
Financial wellbeing and coaching with Bippit
All employees have access to one-on-one coaching with a finance professional through Bippit, allowing us to learn more, plan better, and take action with our finances.
Generous friends and family discount
Complementary eye tests and 20% off all products, plus four 40% discounts a year, for your nearest and dearest. Of course, whether you snaffle them for yourself is up to you.
Bespoke holiday allowance
We offer a flexible holiday allowance, with the option to buy and sell days. Plus an extra day’s leave for every full year with Cubitts, capped, rather reasonably, at one hundred years.
