Business outlook
Pros
Acceptable hours (and pay) during busy period of around 1.5 months or so in the fall, and another two to three months in the spring (otherwise a lot of downtime). You show up to a different school basically everyday (refreshing) and photograph the entire student population. You can potentially make some great friends while working here.
Cons
The high turnover rate means that they don't really care about their employees, and certainly do not reward seniority/loyalty. I've seen them cast aside senior photographers in favor of newcomers for no apparent/rational reason. Management is poor and they expect you to work hard for disproportionate compensation; communication with schools is sometimes poor and results in unnecessary hardships.
