Where do I start? Very low base pay and commission. No opportunity to grow your salary and commission into a liveable wage. I understand starting wages out low, but photographers who have worked for the company for several years, and the C.O.O. himself told me the base wage never goes up. So basically your real wages just go down year after year, with no cost of living raise. You are reimbursed for you gas expense at a daily rate, but your base salary is for the pay period, not by the day. The base pay is 600.00 per pay period whether there are 10,11,or 12 days in the pay period. Fellow employees told me they were offered raises of 1% on their commission, which literally amounts to pennies per car. Every other employee I came in contact with complained about the wages and how cheap the company was when it came to equipment and raises. There is very little incentive to put in long hours. The longer your day the less you make on a per hour basis unless there are A LOT of cars to shoot, which is rarely the case. Working long days trying to increase my numbers and wage, I did not even make minimum wage some days, because there just weren't many cars to shoot. After a couple months of this, I told them I wouldn't be working there much longer unless they gave me more money, or more cars to shoot. It wasn't a surprise when they beat me to the punch. They told me I wasn't a good fit, even though I had nothing but praise from my dealers about my photos and professionalism. They complain about the number of cars that are being shot, even if you are shooting every car available to shoot. In the 2 months I worked there I never had a computer that worked correctly, and had to use my own to do my job. I went 3 weeks without a printer for stickering cars, which was an essential part of my job at one of my dealerships. Then they blamed me for being behind on stickering. Every employee I came in contact with, including management describes the Chief Operating Officer as "intense". Which is really just a nice way of saying he is a rude, intimidating jerk who talks down to everybody. Complain about low wages, lack of equipment, or aloof management; and suddenly you are "not a good fit". There is no way I would have stuck with this company much longer. It is a low paying dead end job, and they do not value their employees. Their "direct deposit" is the bookkeeper walking your check into your bank and depositing it whenever they get around to it on payday. If pay day fails after a long weekend or holiday, don't expect your paycheck in your bank account until toward the end of the day. Just another way they show how little they think of their employee's. You would think they would realize that people who make such little money are actually waiting to get paid, and could use the money first thing on payday to eat lunch, or put gas in their car. How hard could it be to set up a real direct deposit? Turnover rate is high, and they don't seem to get why.
