Pros

You will get plenty of hours. You will be on the road photographing for up to or more than 70hrs/week in the busy times of the year (mid-late summer and fall). They give out gas cards, $.22/mile. Travel pay is $.02/mile.

Cons

Pay is $9/hr for photographing. Travel hourly pay is $7.25. About the job itself,There is no time to spend with family. You will be on the road photographing for up to or more than 70hrs/week in the busy times of the year (mid-late summer and fall). They do give you a gas card which pays for all of the gas you need for your trips, but they only pay $.02/mile for travel pay (for the wear and tear on your vehicle). You will have to be willing to FILL your car with photography equipment for all of your jobs. This will take up your entire trunk, back seat and passenger seat if you have a 4 door car. This by itself will ruin the inside and outside of your vehicle (my car has numerous scratches in the paint from the equipment)

Pros

Coworkers were always friendly and great to work with. Insurance was great.

Cons

Literally everything else. Company makes major changes every few months, firing managers across the country without replacements. Did not fire a sales rep who was committing felony fraud but fired small employees with false information. Company is 90 years old but refuses to make basic improvements. Nowhere to move up and bonus is rigged.
