Pros

It feels good knowing I work for the greatest photo retailer in the world. Management seems to really care about how you treat customers, which make my job very fulfilling. Starting pay is $17 per hour, something unheard of in retail. They don't give me hard time with time-off, and they have 4 weeks a year off for Jewish holidays. They pay for lunch breaks, and allow you to punch in 15 minutes before your scheduled time.

Cons

Unfortunately, if you're not an Orthodox Jew the chances of getting promoted are very slim, and the few who did make it waited 10 years to move up. The business is run like an army, very restrictive and controlling to a level of paranoia. Company focuses very much on keeping their reputation with customers, but seem to care little about their reputation with employees. Benefits package is minimal.

Pros

It's great place to work specially for relifious Jewish people. good medical and health insurance and time off and holiday off. constantly training employees regarding the products, which is very good.

Cons

The management is worst in the world. They are like a closed group in each department and they have they own pets to take a care and watch. Noway you can be promoted, unless you have a connction and being part of their team.

Pros

Very good benefits package, Compensation is average nothing special, very relaxed about time off and respecting personal holidays. Exposure to large area of other expertise.

Cons

The place is run like an army. You get paid by the second! Very stiff and rigid rules from upper management, although they are trying to be more friendly as of when I was there last.
