Pros

The most special thing about B&H, is that all the colleagues you work with, easily become your friends. It's like being part of an extended family. If you are a very highly qualified professional, and obtain a job role with a very high responsibility, the salaries tend to be good. The benefits package is very good, and the company is closed for a week in September, and April each year.

Cons

The company is extremely strict that employees should be at work on time, everyday at 9am. All employees, have to punch in with their fingerprint every morning, even if you are a corporate lawyer! Entry level jobs are easy to get, however the pay is not so great. They do have performance reviews each quarter, and yearly raises, however if you start low, it takes many years to build up to a nice salary.

Pros

• Talented, hard-working colleagues who genuinely care about delivering quality results. • The company has strong brand recognition and a long history in the photo/video industry. • Opportunities to take ownership of complex projects and develop cross-functional skills.

Cons

Across my time with the company, I experienced several leadership and communication challenges that affected team morale, clarity, and psychological safety: • Unclear expectations and inconsistent communication: Project success criteria and performance expectations were often not clearly defined, leading to misalignment, rework, and uncertainty about priorities. • Feedback lacked structure and consistency: Performance feedback was irregular and frequently non-constructive. When guidance was given, it tended to be broad criticism rather than actionable steps for improvement. • Difficulty obtaining clarification when needed: Team members often struggled to receive timely clarification on responsibilities or project direction, making it harder to understand the full scope of their roles. • Discouraged escalation and limited support: At times, employees felt discouraged from bringing concerns to HR or other support channels, creating an environment where individuals hesitated to seek fair resolution. • Meetings used in ways that increased stress: Meetings were sometimes scheduled under one expectation but then used to discuss unrelated issues or deliver prolonged criticism, contributing to anxiety and reduced trust. • Perceived inconsistency in how opportunities and scrutiny were applied: Certain employees appeared to receive preferential treatment while others faced harsher scrutiny without transparent justification. This imbalance affected morale and trust in leadership.
