Hello! Thanks for your review. I am happy to hear you are enjoying the aspect of working for a global company, feel that the culture is inclusive and collaborative, and that your work is positively impacting the organization. Career development is top of mind for many employees who wish to continue to grow and develop within their role. As such, the HR team is partnering with Compensation and functional Leadership to map out transparent career ladders so that employees can have transparent conversations around what growth looks like and how to achieve promotions and moving to the next level. However, development is not just moving into the next level, but also exemplifying the leadership principles, strengthening interpersonal skills and cross-collaborative abilities, participating in leadership trainings and learning how to influence on your team. As you continue to look ahead to other opportunities, I encourage you to explore these other aspects with your manager and HR Business Partner. You can also always reach out to me at carly.etzin@gettyimages.com. Thank you!

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.
