Pros

Perfect for stay home mom looking for extra cash for a a year or two

Cons

Benefits are ridiculous , pay and compensation for using your own vehicle is a scam and the constant pressure to photograph as fast as possible so the company can pay as little as possible is a slap in the face to their schools and a lack of respect towards them and the parents .They expect photographers to be available for them during the season but have no compensation in place if a school cancel , so you'll be left with no income. You'll have to fill unemployment when the season is over if you want to make it for a few months , that is no a way to make a living . The idea is to get as much as possible from the photographers and inflate the retirement funds for those vested and after being treated like dirt for a couple of years , people quit before they are eligible and they go on hiring new people and doing the same thing . If you like photography , find somewhere else to work , you will end up hating taking pictures .

Pros

Great Sales Team. Remote based position.

Cons

-Losing out to competitors has become acceptable or business as usual. -Management has become out of touch with what is going on in the field. -Outdated Photography equipment. -There is constant turnover with photographers. Difficult to keep good people when they are not paid well & have no structure. -Company is very reactionary. Making cuts seems to always be their answer to solve low profits.
