Pros

Incredible company mission, amazing products and wonderful clients. Most colleagues have long standing tenure and are dedicated to the industry.

Cons

Tremendous change due to the availability of professional cameras and the increase of available content. Subscription model will be the ultimate decline of this industry due to the seemingly unlimited availability of new images. Professional photographers will ultimately be paying the price for this, as their "art" has become a commodity. Value of images continues to drop and it will become more and more difficult for photographers to have a stable income.

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.
