Pros

The team is great and everybody supports each other, which is the most important thing for me personally. Of course, the provided benefits are also important. The goals are ambitious but at the same time realistic and you have a fair chance to achieve them. The fact that you can work remotely from home is also fantastic.

Cons

I have been here for over 10 years and that says a lot: there is nothing to report as negative. Of course there are occasionally issues, as in each company, but there are always solutions.

I'm so glad you've had such a positive experience. We place a large emphasis on being the best place you've ever worked and that starts with our people. Living by our Operating Principles and our Leadership Principles ensures that our employees are aligned not only to the business, but to our values as a company as well. I'm also happy to hear you enjoy being able to work from home. Our Flexible Work Principles were put in place to provide the highest level of work/life balance for our employees so that they have the space to work in ways that suit them.

Hello, thank you for your review, and thank you for your work throughout the last two years with Getty Images! I'm happy to hear you find the work interesting! We certainly believe we do great work, and we are happy to have you as part of the team! We know it can be difficult to meet sales deadlines and work under pressure at times. Please know that your manager and your Human Resource Business Partner are always available as a resource if you need assistance navigating any difficulties you may come across. We also appreciate that while the hybrid/remote work model provides a lot of flexibility for employees, it can be difficult to create relationships with peers. To help combat this, we have a Donut Slack channel where you are randomly paired with another employee for a conversational meeting to get to know one another! We also have Employee Resource Groups to help employees meet others who come from the same background. In addition, our Global Morale Committee, as well as our local office morale committees, work hard to plan events to promote connection among co-workers both in person and over Zoom. If you have any ideas for how we can further connect our employees to one another, please don't hesitate to reach out to me! Feel free to email me at sarah.dudley@gettyimages.com!

Good morning, thank you so much for your review! Thank you also for the work you've done for us throughout the last 20 years! I am thrilled to see you've had a positive experience while working here. We really do believe we have the best employees who help drive us to be the best place you'll ever work! Thank you also for mentioning our benefits! We have a wonderful team who works hard to ensure we can provide the best offerings possible. We know flexible work may not be for everyone, but we promote our Flexible Work Principles so employees know how they can remain connected even when not in the office, like our Donut Slack channel, which connects employees throughout all areas of the business so they can get to know one another outside of the office, through Zoom. With so many offices located around the globe, we also hope employees have the opportunity to work from an office if nearby - we regularly hold in-office events to support morale as well! Thank you again for your review - if there is anything else you think of that you'd like to share, please email me at sarah.dudley@gettyimages.com!
