Pros

I loved the work I did

Cons

The men I worked with were abusive,did not want a woman working there.I worked there for 18 years.I ended up retiring early. I knew I could not handle the constant abuse any more. Upper management nor H.R. helped me. H.R. was busy protecting the company and my bosses were part of the problem. Here is just a few things that happened to me. Once I was told to go lay down by my dish,was tripped right in front of my boss somehow he didn't see it, was called a very bad name several times, found out from other employees lies the men were saying about me. I worked with all men in my department. I ended my career early, a job I loved because it wasn't going to stop, I was physically ill from stress, and no one would help with the situation. My Dr diagnosed me with PSTD because of nightmares that I was having about work.

Pros

Strong since of community at local level, and support from Directors and regional managers however all that support is no longer employed.

Cons

Revolving CEO lead to new strategic focus every 3 years. Round after round of layoffs, mergers, restructures. I went through no less than 6 during my 5 years as a senior manager. Lost local control, and ability to build relationships with accounts. Closed offices based on lease agreements rather than area performance. I would be very careful to ask questions about culture, and tenure of staff, ask how many offices were closed or restructures have happened since Shutterfly, and then Apollo Global Capital. Apollo Global Management usually holds onto assets for 3-5 years, we are past that mark so I would be expecting that they will be breaking up Shutterfly in the near future if it is no longer profitable.
