Pros

The people, the passion, the commitment for what we do. Capturing wonderful memories. It is a wonderful place if you are into the mission of the company.

Cons

every 3 years, new president in the corner office at the school studios division. Why? Because Paul Harmel, CEO of Lifetouch corporate, has no idea what he is doing. The job has passed him by. He knows it but won't admit it and retire. His cronies are on the board and they follow his lead. Typical corporate board. They enjoy the perks, and won't 'do in' one of their own. As an employee owned company, there is no way to bring in an outsider that can shake up the leadership. It needs to happen. Harmel is a disaster for the company. 8 Presidents in the biggest division in 10 years. That is not where the problem lies. it is with Harmel and the board.

Pros

Love working with other creative, fun photographers and meeting lots of amazing cool kids.

Cons

Terrible manager. Very low pay and time spent in training is poorly planned and the training itself is of little benefit in the field.
