Thank you for leaving this feedback! We’re glad you think our benefits are a strength – we think affordable health insurance and the work-life balance we offer through paid time off and schedule flexibility are pretty special. We have continued to make changes to our flexible time off guidelines in order to allow employees the time they need outside of work.

Pros

- fun culture where you get to hear talks by photographers - adopts new technologies relatively early in the game - a really great place to learn and grow as a developer

Cons

- can handle shifts/re-orgs poorly with communication, leaving employees feeling unheard and unvalued.

Pros

WFH, good overall culture. Good people.

Cons

Leadership has been slow to stay current and modern in the workplace. The business is straddled with debt from a pervious investment company that had bought Getty and gutted it. Future is uncertain.
