Pros

Photography is world-class. Work involves some fun challenges. There are many people who are great to work with.

Cons

They will push you out whenever it suits them. No loyalty or appreciation for good work. Reviews/promotion/salary increases are a joke--they write what they need to justify predetermined outcomes.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed your coworkers – we hear that a lot! – but disappointed to hear you perceived favoritism and unfair evaluations. This is an area we have been defining more objectively, building out levels for both our Leadership Principles and technical leadership competencies. We do have thorough requirements and approval process for promotions, reviews, and associated salary increases to ensure fairness; though we also do have predetermined budgets we need to keep in mind for the business as a whole. Because we don’t have the ability to always give every employee the maximum salary increase, we have a number of other recognition tools, including spot bonuses and Leadership Principle awards throughout the year. We do try to work with employees to identify growth opportunities whenever we can, within their existing role or into a new one – and while this can work out to mutual benefit, sometimes it does not. If there is additional context or feedback you would like to provide, please reach out at HRGlobal@gettyimages.com.
