Shutterfly Employee Reviews about "great people"

Pros

Awesome culture and great people. This is the most fun that I have had working at any company. Most people have a get it done attitude but also know when to relax and have fun. Things are always changing so difficult to get bored. Pay and benefits are good. Lot of opportunities for talented people to grow and be developed into whatever they want. Your efforts will be recognized.

Cons

Since things are always changing sometimes things get loss in the mix. Lots of structure and processes are being developed/deployed to make sure everyone is on the same page but this can be improved. I feel that the disconnect between the front end of the business and the back end is the largest con. I know that new product offers are a key aspect to the business to stay relevant and maintain market leadership, but sometimes concepts for products are not fully vetted on how it will be produced before making the decision to pursue. There are lots of hidden costs that are not being accounted for. Introducing a colored envelope may sound simple but there are huge impacts downstream and sometimes it is not worth providing the customer with the option of selecting every color in the world.

Pros

You have flexibility in terms of commuting/ time spent in office, and work with great people and communicative leaders.

Cons

You need to be able to be able to be quick and accepting of change. I've been with the company a little over one year, where half of the executive staff has changed, seen 3 CEOs, and an entire re-organiztion of the marketing team.

Pros

I met some really great people while working for Shutterfly, and also had a lot of great opportunities that came my way as well!

Cons

The thing that I disliked about them was that they are very 'clique-y'. You only get ahead by brown nosing your way there. If upper management had a problem with you, they will find a way to get rid of you.

Pros

Great people to work with, competitive pay and good benefits

Cons

Hard to move upward after a certain level. Lots of long hours.

Pros

Awesome benefits and great people.

Cons

Lack of growth for internal employees.

Pros

Great people to work with

Cons

Upper management doesn't seem to care about people as much as the prior regime.

Pros

Coworkers were more like family than friends. They hired great people for the most part.

Cons

Every year that I worked at Shutterfly was worse than the last. They are on a constant downhill slope as far as employee moral and benefits go. I couldn't wait to leave Shutterfly after many years without a single pay promotion. Absolutely absurd.
