Pros

Great learning experience and a new perspective in the printing industry

Cons

I wasn't a huge fan of how they implemented their PTO policy. Due to COVID-19 the lines to clock in changed from three down to one. I worked alongside many Adecco employees and they had a small window to how late they could be. Whereas the shutterfly employees were penalized for being late one minute. The speed of the lines varied and it was a little difficult to plan ahead sometimes. The minimum about of PPTO to use to cover this was one hour. As the company began hiring more temp workers the probability of being late increased. Frankly for this reason I prefered to leave on my own terms.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
