Pros

Shutterfly has some amazing people that have shared values and passion around memorable moments. New leadership is bringing a strong vision, quick decisions and a focus on driving employee engagement and business performance!

Cons

A lot of change that is constantly responding to business and employee needs - so if you are not comfortable with "pivoting", then the culture will be challenging.

Pros

Gain good work community as we all struggled through the ever changing initiatives and direction based on the ever changing leadership.

Cons

In the 3 years I worked for this company, there were 2 CEOs 3 CMOs and 2 vice presidency of marketing. Each time C suite changed so did the brands strategies that were barely in place from the previous leadership. It was a headache trying to keep up with individual leadership personal preferences for how the teams should preform. The longest standing employee when I left was there for 3.5 years. No foundation. Yearly layoffs must be expected as it is there way. Do not expect bonuses even if goals are met. When layoffs do happen team leaders are left out of the know causing everyone confusion and mistrust during the January February time of year.
