About Us:

Warby Parker was founded with a mission: to inspire and impact the world with vision purpose and style.

We’re constantly asking ourselves how we can do more and make a greater impact—and that starts by reimagining everything that a company and industry can be.We want to demonstrate that a business can scale be profitable and do good in the world—without charging a premium for it. And we’ve learned that it takes creativity empathy and innovation to achieve that goal.

Since the day we launched in 2010 we’ve pioneered ideas designed products and developed technologies that help people see. We offer everything our customers need for happier eyes at a price that leaves them with money in their pockets from designer-quality glasses and contacts to eye exams and vision tests.

Ultimately we believe in vision for all which is why for every pair of glasses or sunglasses we sell a pair of glasses is distributed to someone in need through our Buy a Pair Give a Pair program. Over ten million pairs of glasses have been distributed in over 50 countries; that means ten million people now have the glasses they need to learn work and achieve better economic outcomes.

At Warby Parker you can look forward to company outings and events volunteering and learning opportunities and just great company filled with curious kind folks. Dreaming up and sharing ideas aren’t responsibilities reserved for certain teams or leaders; the challenge (a really fun one) of innovation is on all of our shoulders. Teammates can also connect around common interests backgrounds and identities no matter their home base through our various employee resource groups. (We’re happy to say that the Human Rights Campaign has named us a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ+ employees!) That sense of community and belonging keeps us excited to walk through the door every day wherever that door may be.

Were driven to continue building a workplace based on inclusive behaviors and equitable systems where all employees can bring their authentic selves feel engaged and share their perspectives as a valued member of Team Warby.Transparency is what we’re all about and our annualImpact Report and Racial Equity Strategylay out how we’re sticking to these values.
