Pros

Able to use your creative side when you're behind the camera. The atmosphere was fun and very satisfying. Hours where decent.

Cons

Management was really horrible at managing everyone and budget. At times you didn't know if you were going to be laid off or on the managements good side.

Pros

Photography can be extremely rewarding when they aren't shoving goals down your throat and expect you to do that with 15 minute sittings.

Cons

Management is terrible. No communication throughout the studio, they were texting me schedules because no one could make one on paper, not everyone was made to do ASR. Too many appointments that are ASR only and expected to do so much with "packages" in just under 15 minutes. You are forced to sell pre-paid tickets on the floor otherwise your hours are cut back to nothing. The multi-unit managers are a joke. They manage 4 studios and they can barely handle one. Put studio managers back into place and communication would jump up tremendously. Also, when is not OK to call an employee on their day off? I have never heard of such nonsense.

Pros

The only thing that made working there bearable were co-workers

Cons

Poor management - poor pay - poor raise ( i received a 2 cent raise after working for 3 years!!) & I was one of the best employees! this place is so scattered brain that the bigger they get.... the harder they are going to fall!! they keep buying or TRYING to buyout other photo businesses because they are afraid of the competitions!!...... one day they will be no more.... it's all about CORPORATE GREED They may say it's an "employee company' BUT in reality it ISN'T! I'm VERY GLAD I'm NOT there anymore!! NOT worth the stress they put on you for quota and sales. If you dont meet their demands...guess what?? you get your ASS chewed!!
