Pros
Great place to learn about photography and work with some cool people. The vendors tend to be awesome people and willing to train you (more than the company itself does). Employee discounts are awesome. Some of the customers are damn cool too, and you'll get the opportunity to rub elbows with some big names in the photo world. Really, in spite of this being an overall negative review, it's a good first job.
Kontras
Beware of any company that calls itself "like a family", as they will expect you to sacrifice your sanity and well-being for little to no gain. There's a near-zero possibility of advancement unless you become a favorite of management. Incompetent but "in" employees are never punished for their incompetence, but competent, "out" employees are; nepotism is rampant. Salaried employees are expected to respond to emails off the clock, and they'll even try to suck in hourly employees to do the same thing. Wages and commissions are a joke, and benefits get worse every year. It's basically working at Target except with expensive, shiny stuff instead of clothes. Do your 3-5 years here and find a better job.
