Pros

A great product, with great suppliers (photographers and media partners), great employees, and exciting, sexy industry. Lots of opportunity to make a difference in the industry, and good cache on resume given the company's public recognition. Clients like Corbis, too.

Cons

Going through a tough time in its industry, with dire predictions for the impact of competing microstock companies, constant senior leadership changes and business strategies, and a growing sense of internal fear at speaking your mind. Management got the cost containment part down recently, but is having problems with the vision for increasing revenue and market share.

Pros

Amazingly friendly coworkers, great tech stack and opportunities to learn. SWEs have the opportunity to wear a lot of hats.

Cons

Management had some issues from what I heard, but I was always too busy developing and improving great products. It was a tough market with the ever-shrinking stock photography market, which was likely the reason for it's demise. If the developers working at Corbis had a more relevant market fit, the company would have soared.
