Pros

Great place to start as retail/photographer position. Learn skills in how to work with customers, manage time in the sitting room, working with kids from newborn to high school grads

Cons

Low pay; not ideal for the creative photog type as it is a corporate environment. So shooting, lighting, etc is all done a certain way

Pros

Ability to practice your craft at high school and college events and expand your portfolio.

Cons

No raises. Ridiculous travel. Unscrupulous management practices. Excessive mileage placed on your own vehicle at the lowest reimbursement (10% of the price of gas... .23 cents a mile ish versus government rate of .56). The modern equivalent of working for the mine owners and being paid in script. Join for a season or two and learn and leave. No ability to feed a family on their salary.

Pros

My co workers were some of the best people I've ever worked with. You definitely form a bond working those long, tough hours together. You meet a lot of interesting people working at different schools every day.

Cons

There is unfair preferential treatment for some employees over others by management. There are no pay raises ever, no matter how many years you've been there.
