Pros

Team was good to work with. Photographers great at their job. Clients usually lovely.

Cons

Pay was terrible and they lied about it going up after probation. Managers/owners out of touch with staff. Selling techniques and customer acquisition methods extremely immoral. Alot of manipulation by owners to staff and customers.

Pros

The training is good, both for sales and ongoing development for photographers. Commission for the sales staff is quite good and achievable (when paid), but not for photographers.

Cons

This is the most pressured and abusive environment I have ever worked in. The photographers were lovely but the sales team and managers were awful. You're lured in with the promise of great career growth, but in reality you're just fighting against your colleagues to keep your position. The way customers are targeted and brought in is shameful, and the tactics used within the viewing to get final sales are unbelievable. I was consistently underpaid the commission I had earned, the manager refused to issue me a contract, and ended up firing me when she (incorrectly) suspected I was pregnant.

Pros

Training provided, opportunities with the right people in the company and some great studio events.

Cons

Bullies within hierarchy of studios, training means they have reason not to give you a pay rise and it's hard to move upwards if you don't know the right people. Pushy sales techniques and incredibly expensive for people who can't afford it.
