Pros

Flexible schedule. Paid training. New York employees are paid $120 per day and more professional, many have been in territory for more than 10 years. This was a fun environment when I was still learning basic studio photography. There was a sense of pride in the profession in NY. However, it was drastically different experience in California territories.

Cons

Horrible Pay and hours, no gas compensation, disorganized staff, poor management. Many 'photographers' are not artists or photographers. Many company employees on drugs. Varies each region and state. New York employees are paid $120 per day and more professional, many have been in territory for more than 10 years. However California pays $10 hour and little hours, no breaks and high stress! Never know the schedule until the week before. Also there is a high turn around rate, which also makes life more stressful to cover extra shifts.

Pros

Great Sales Team. Remote based position.

Cons

-Losing out to competitors has become acceptable or business as usual. -Management has become out of touch with what is going on in the field. -Outdated Photography equipment. -There is constant turnover with photographers. Difficult to keep good people when they are not paid well & have no structure. -Company is very reactionary. Making cuts seems to always be their answer to solve low profits.
