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.

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re pleased you found Easy Downloads easy to use, but we understand your frustration regarding low royalties and the feeling that contributors deserve more recognition when their work is used by major brands. We truly value the work creators put into the platform and appreciate your candid feedback. If you have any specific or further feedback you'd like to share on this topic, please feel free to reach out to me at sarah.dudley@gettyimages.com
