Pros

- Artona has a diverse multi-ethnic staff, and most of the employees were decent people who were nice to work with. - On a personal level, Artona was willing to hire me at a time when I had been out of work for a while and needed a job. So I'll always be grateful for the opportunity.

Cons

- Lays off most of the staff during the summer, which is the slow season. So at Artona, most staff don't seem to have much in the way of job security. - Pay for most front line staff is relatively low - maybe a few dollars more than minimum wage. Photographers might make more than that, but generally I would not describe the wages and benefits as generous. - The owner installed video surveilance cameras all over, as he apparently has trust issues with his employees.

Pros

Nice lobby to the building. Some nice photographers

Cons

Unorganized, old school ways with no intention to change, customer service is not well handled or trained, no one is clear on policies nor care to clear anything up. Hire people with the wrong intentions the fires ppl with in the end of theirprobationary period so they ca give you no valid reason as to why they are letting you go. Salary is terrible! Not worth the headache just don't do it.

We hear your feedback. It is obvious that there is room for improvement to clarify policies and contracts. This will ensure we are on the same page in terms of job proficiency, performance, and how those affect contract end dates. Thank you for sharing this.

Boss is a tyrant whose sole focus is making more money. He does not care about the workers or the clients
