Pros

I thoroughly enjoy working here at Focus Camera. The employees/management are all great people, everyone's nice and friendly. It's a great work environment with flexible hours. Beside all that, our boss is a really generous man, which is a real big plus. Overall I'm just happy to be here working with a great group of people, especially the team that I'm on.

Cons

Way too cold here in the summer time.

Thanks for your review! There are definitely benefits at Focus Camera, including medical insurance, paid lunch/time-off, and discount programs for a variety of products. HR’s door is always open to give you more information about the benefits you are interested in. In reference to your comment of it being ‘hard to reach the boss,’ he responds to all emails within 24 hours. We recently received a Glassdoor review stating that the boss’ door is always open and you can chat with him, even if about non-work related subjects. In reference to organization, there is always room for improvement and we rely on the employees to assist bettering it. We are always ready for new ideas and methods of implementation, so please speak or email HR about the issues or ideas you have.

Pros

I came in knowing nothing about the business but I got great training from some top senior guys, and three years and a few promotions and raises later, I'm moving to be closer to the head office, because I'm confident in my long-term success there. A few Pros: - The company has been around for 50+ years. It is growing, thriving, and stable. - The office atmosphere is easygoing and relaxed, dress is informal, and mostly everyone is cooperative and friendly. - The boss is usually there at the New York office and willing to have a quick chat with anyone who knocks on his door about whatever's on their mind, either hearing out good ideas or resolving problems. - Even if you're full time, your schedule can be flexible if you need it to be, like some people who leave early to care for their families, or have other special considerations. Management takes work/life balance very seriously and doesn't unilaterally shift schedules around or arbitrarily change expectations. - Their generous "employee purchase program" gives all employees steep discounts on all of Focus Camera's merchandise, including cameras, computers, TVs, and other expensive electronics.

Cons

There aren't a lot of good lunch options nearby, so brown-bagging it or ordering delivery is the norm.
