Pros

I've worked for Getty for 16 years and have always been proud to work here. Our benefits are amazing, we are best in class at what we do and the people care for each other. Since the beginning of this pandemic Getty and our CEO Craig Peters have been stellar - we are all working from home and the company policy is very clear on when we will re-open offices; when a vaccine that is effective and available to everyone & and no new cases in that region for 30 days. So many other employers have really failed at putting the lives of their employees ahead of profits.

Cons

Can't really think of any
