Can be stressful, may have to troubleshoot equipment if not working properly
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
active work environment creative in nature
Cons
the pay isn't that great compared to how much work you do
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Working with the kiddos is so much fun. You get paid for mileage - not nearly enough to make it worth it though.
Cons
No benefits. Very very very minimal training for people who are hired with no experience. So you are left floundering to figure it out yourself. Tech issues all the time. A lot of schools don’t have service for some reason so even if you need help you can’t call anyone to get help. Management team was so unsupportive and made me feel like a burden and stupid for asking questions. Not great pay. It says full-time but you never get full-time hours. You are either working 20 hours a week or 80 there is no inbetween.

Pros
Can be a fun environment to work in. Had a decent retirement program.
Cons
Very unorganized with little to no daily management. No communication between office employees and photographers. I worked there for years without a direct manager. When they finally hired one the individual was unqualified, got overwhelmed and left after a short period.

Pros
Fun and creative environment Everyday is different Working with various type of people and ages. Sales incentives
Cons
Corporate does not listen to feedback from employees working in the field. Does not offer a competitive enough pay for experienced photographers. No benefits for part time employees. Have to work every weekend and can't take days off during holiday peak seasons.
- Current Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
Good Benefits - Pay can be good in Corporate - Nice people
Cons
Total lack of direction - managment is constantly changing and has little vision of how to plan for the future. Instead of solving a problems they just add more layers and make things more complicated. The future is not good for ShutterFly and especially LifeTouch.
