Pros

cover mileage, work with professional (but poorly upkept) gear

Cons

Bottom of the barrel pay (even though they sell $2,000-$3,000 packages and just opened a $2 MILLION innovation center), women will sometimes be discriminated against (because men can't get past that women are better photographers), you will not be given creative freedom (don't come here if you are artistic because you most definitely won't fall into the basic and uninspired "Cady Standard"), you will never get 40 hours (so you can forget covering your rent with this job), breaks never happen (we love breaking labor laws!), and you might pass out from a heat stroke because all black uniform is REQUIRED inside and outside. Also photo editing is outsourced, so your pictures might come back blown out and ugly. Love working hard for a horrible outcome!

Pros

I enjoyed working with a number of my co-workers.

Cons

-This job made me want to never pick up a camera again. Joy was taken from something that I love and am passionate about. -Little-to-no creative opportunities. Instead, "the CADY way," which is a generic assembly line approach to portrait photography. -Condescending shift supervisors. -Inconsistency when it came to treatment of employees in similar positions. -Didn't work well with one another's strengths as a photographer. -Lacking in true leadership. -I knew what wax expected of me, yet at the time of my hiring, was mislead to believe that I should be expecting more opportunities to open up for me. -Unprofessional and disrespectful in workplace accommodation.

Pros

You get to meet great people and build experience

Cons

This place is a scam! Schedules are inconsistent, you are sent to grapevine all the time. Photographers are given false promises of pay raises and fair hours. Don’t work here
