      Going in the right direction

      Software engineering manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Company going through culture change of being a technology company which happens to be in eCommerce (vs. an eCommerce company which happens to use technology) - Increased communication in all levels of management up to the CEO on a timely basis, with brown bags, fireside chats and online chat forums - People are understanding and respects one another - Management allows for work-life balance to equally performing staff members - Upper management going through positive changes focusing on results and retention

      Cons

      - There are certain groups adjusting to the positive changes, find ways to train a new set of mentality to enable fresh ways of pushing the Shutterfly 3.0 vision - Staffing churn suffered from prior management styles, good to see we are actively reviewing ways to retain talented staff with leadership training - Exciting technology is sometimes buried in the works, find ways to communicate these out to employees and the public

      Great company environment, some occasional red tape

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Shutterfly has a great environment and work culture. Folks are generally happy and most people get along well. The office space in Santa Clara is spacious and comfortable. HR and the social committee do their best to keep morale up.

      Cons

      Occasional long hours particularly in Q4, not helped by the meeting-heavy culture (not uncommon for lots of employees to spend all day in meetings and all night doing their actual work). Meetings could be pared down to be more efficient and employees could be judged on their work rather than on how many hours they spend in the office. Career advancement often based on seniority.
