Pros

The people I've met working at Lifetouch have all been great. There have been a few personality conflicts but nothing major partly because of the kind of work we do. The pay is not very enticing unless you are in one of the management positions but the creative opportunities and learning opportunities make up for some of that. Lifetouch also has an ESOP program for potential retirees that is attractive.

Cons

The work of transporting a portable studio, setting up, photographing and breaking down equipment can became tedious. There are also problems with equipment that are to be expected with any technology but made more frustrating because of the on-demand nature of our work. The pay for photographers is also not great and the job is seasonal. It is rare except during the summer to work 40 hours in a week.

Pros

Great Sales Team. Remote based position.

Cons

-Losing out to competitors has become acceptable or business as usual. -Management has become out of touch with what is going on in the field. -Outdated Photography equipment. -There is constant turnover with photographers. Difficult to keep good people when they are not paid well & have no structure. -Company is very reactionary. Making cuts seems to always be their answer to solve low profits.
