Pros
Company seems to care about its employees - IF you get a good DSM. I've heard horror stories about bad DMs. It is a fun job, I'd rather take pictures and make me worried for people than stand behind a register. There are opportunities to earn a small commission by selling higher packages or digital albums.
Cons
The labor model is AWFUL. We can't guarantee our part time employees a set number of hours per week and it makes it hard to keep employees. The hours are terrible especially if you have a family or kids, you must work at least 2-3 weekends per month and are held accountable for things that are completely out of your control. Studio managers are essentially working 4-5 different jobs and getting paid for one.
