Pros

The people are the only thing that keep PhotoBiz going. And I'm not talking upper management. The talent amongst the crucial teams - development, design, and marketing is actually very impressive.

Cons

Upper Management (the owners who function as the COO/Marketing Manager and the Head of Development) is so threatened by the knowledge and ability of the employees that they lead with fear. A couple times a year they'll pick an employee or few to move to other teams or even be demoted on a dime. With no prior performance discussions. They also constantly push this idea that the culture is great and the support team is second to none but frankly it's quite the opposite. Non-competitive in regards to pay. And little to no room for career advancement.

Pros

The people here are awesome, and come from all walks of life. You are truly able to engage and make friends with everyone there. Your co-workers also care about you which is nice. As long as you do your job, and help others you will be well respected. You also have the ability to work with many different programs, and software that make you extremely diverse for your future career. Take advantage of every opportunity and even if there is no extra pay, it will pay dividends on your resume. While a lot of the cons and negative things below sound bad, if the company does improve on these huge core problems this place could be one of the best places to work.

Cons

The pay, it is terrible and below industry standard. They do not pay the hardest working employees what they deserve while paying others who do less a lot more money. They do not give raises and reviews are far and few between. The upstairs work group has no idea how hard the support team works and the CEO is in the office for 5-10 hours a week yet wants to control everything. This creates bad morale among the strongest and hardest working team.
