Thank you for posting feedback around your experience at Getty Images. We strive to promote a culture that drives work/life balance, collaboration, continuous growth and development, and offers a competitive total rewards package. It is great to hear that you are enjoying the flexibility of a hybrid work environment and are utilizing our healthcare benefits. It is discouraging that your viewpoint is that Getty Images does not promote from within, as we have two promotion cycles per year, along with formal quarterly check-ins and weekly employee/manager 1:1s. Between April and October 2021, we celebrated over 50+ employee promotions. If you have concerns around your role and opportunities for development, I encourage you to chat with your manager and your HR Business Partner. In addition, we launch pay equity analyses to ensure that employees are being paid fairly and to market. These are available on Mixer, our intranet site, and are in tandem with market reviews that the Compensation Team leads. If you have any further questions, please connect with your HR Business Partner or myself at carly.etzin@gettyimages.com. Thanks!

Pros

Great place to work that fosters a connected work environment! Top to bottom, all employees are valued the same and very much involved in growing the business. Customer and employee feedback is taken seriously and often leads to effective changes where applicable.

Cons

Information overload at times. Consistent changes means there is always something new to learn.

Hello and thank you for sharing a review on Glassdoor. We strive to be one of the greatest places that you will ever work, and employee feedback is paramount to improving our processes and interactions. As such and to your second point, we have hired a Knowledge Management Team to consolidate information on our intranet sites to create clear messaging and concise information as best we can. With some more recent company changes, such as going public, there is a ton of information and announcements that we choose to share with employees due to the transparent environment our GLT is committed to. While this can be overwhelming at times, the intention is for you to feel as connected as possible. If you would ever like to chat with your HR Business Partner to gain more clarity, I encourage you to do so. Please also feel free to reach out to me at carly.etzin@gettyimages.com. Thank you!

Thank you for posting a review on Glassdoor! It is extremely positive to see that in our Technology department, you are experiencing a great culture and are enjoying the work that you are doing. This is not the first time we are hearing this feedback around career development, and I am pleased to share that we have been participating in a job benchmarking initiative to clearly map out job descriptions, development opportunities, and clear steps to continue to grow in level and seniority in all roles and functions at Getty Images. We hope this initiative will be completed in Q4 and we can broadly share with the organization. However, if you have additional feedback to share, I encourage you to connect with your manager, HR Business Partner, or myself at carly.etzin@gettyimages.com. Thank you!
