Pros

occasional free stuff like cookies and jamba juice

Cons

mocking of customers; every printer room at Navy Pier has photos on the walls of past customers, all which have been altered or made fun of in some way. Its apparently "funny" to have them and show them off, but its not very professional at all

Business Outlook

Pros

THERE ARE NO GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS COMPANY

Cons

They profile people @ Group Job fairs. I went to a group job fair and thought I had apretty good chance. But I didn't get selected. They picked out 5 or 6 people they liked better than everyone and despite my experience and photog skills they didnt bother with me. Maybe because I didn't have the Celeb style look, but everything shouldnt be about looks. It should be about your skills. ANyway I wontbe applying to Photogenic in the fuutre or wasting my time with their profiling job fairs. They seem to pick out certain types of people they like mostly 20 year old hip college students.
