I have been working at Dodd Camera
Pros – Accessibility to Senior Management, freedom to style your work environment, ability to act on ideas and effort is rewarded. Every location is an entity unto itself, being shaped by the store management and personnel while working in the framework of the company. Senior management really cares about the staff with a family first mentality and has a healthy respect for the individuals in their employ.
Cons – You aren't going to get rich, but you won't dread going to your job every day. The ever changing market and products makes it difficult to keep on top of things for those that aren't passionate about photography/video. Not quick to throw around titles, so if your looking for a short stint and a resume stuffer it's not the place despite the business knowledge gained.
Advice to Senior Management – Larger stores with broader product offerings to attract more customers, even if it means combining locations. Elevate web marketing and social media efforts.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Pros – Family first company. They care personally about you but professionally, forget about it.
Commissions are fair at best.
Cons – Micromanaging, overworked, underpaid, you don't get a review unless you press for it. No such thing as a cost of living increase. Commission base is fair at best but unreliable.
Advice to Senior Management – While you can manage a business, take the insight of your coworkers for more than words. The company could grow.
