Pros

Through the pandemic and economic crises, the leadership has been steady and consistent. Company has clear plans and communicates transparently and fairly.

Cons

Current leadership has navigated through a number of challenging issues during the team's tenure, from the pandemic, to social unrest and the global economy. Would be great to see what happens when we get through this set of circumstances fully.

Thank you so much for the review! As a community we have certainly been through some trying times that haven't been easy on anyone! Our leadership team, especially our CEO Craig Peters, make it a point to always remain transparent about the times we are living in and how we are going to tackle the hardships together. This sort of transparency is supported by our Leadership Principles, particularly "we are trustworthy, transparent, and honest". Our leaders extend that transparency and support into our monthly All Hands meetings, Leadership Soundbites, weekly newsletters, and Mixer updates. We hope you find these updates helpful so that you always have an idea of how we are moving forward as a company, and what those changes mean for you as an employee. Thank you again for the time you took to write a review; if you have anything else you'd like to share, please feel free to email me at sarah.dudley@gettyimages.com!

Good morning, thank you so much for your review! Thank you also for the work you've done for us throughout the last 20 years! I am thrilled to see you've had a positive experience while working here. We really do believe we have the best employees who help drive us to be the best place you'll ever work! Thank you also for mentioning our benefits! We have a wonderful team who works hard to ensure we can provide the best offerings possible. We know flexible work may not be for everyone, but we promote our Flexible Work Principles so employees know how they can remain connected even when not in the office, like our Donut Slack channel, which connects employees throughout all areas of the business so they can get to know one another outside of the office, through Zoom. With so many offices located around the globe, we also hope employees have the opportunity to work from an office if nearby - we regularly hold in-office events to support morale as well! Thank you again for your review - if there is anything else you think of that you'd like to share, please email me at sarah.dudley@gettyimages.com!

Pros

Getty Images has an amazing company culture. I feel incredibly lucky to work at a company that really puts their employee's needs front and center. A healthy work/ life balance is encouraged and supported. We have the best healthcare benefits and vacation I've seen. I love getting to provide the best content, licensing, and insights in the world to our customers.

Cons

This is a face paced environment that requires constant personal development and the ability to adapt quickly. This is great for some people but could be a drawback for others.
