Hi, there - thanks for taking the time to write a review! It sounds like you had some positive experiences as a Getty Images employee. I'm sorry to hear you felt there was a lot of pressure to sell, as well as there being several rules to follow. We take pride in being one of the best places you'll ever work and hold our business and our employees to a high standard in an effort to create a positive experience for all. This is a constantly-changing business and we understand the pressure that comes along with that. Because of this, we ensure that we have a multitude of resources available for all employees to take advantage of. This includes internal training resources, SharePoint sites, online training programs, and accessible managers and members of Human Resources. Any employee is free to schedule time to meet with their Business Partner should they feel they need additional help maintaining a successful career during their time with us. If you have any specific feedback you'd like to share, we are always here to listen. Please feel free to email me at sarah.dudley@gettyimages.com if you have anything further you'd like to discuss!

Pros

- fun culture where you get to hear talks by photographers - adopts new technologies relatively early in the game - a really great place to learn and grow as a developer

Cons

- can handle shifts/re-orgs poorly with communication, leaving employees feeling unheard and unvalued.
