Pros

By far the employees are the best part of Shutterfly. People genuinely care about their work and their colleagues. The culture is supportive. Leaders are relatable.

Cons

There’s no strategy besides layoffs if they don’t hit financial goals. The company is owned by private equity so it’s all about money. Teams are forced to take on more with less resources.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
