If you have no choice - Anonymous employee B&H Photo Video Employee Review

Some nice co-workers across different departments They only hire because people keep leaving.. so if you need a job to fill a role they have, they will take you to fill a position.

-Extreme workload and high expectations for little pay. -PTO has to be used for a Jewish holiday if you want to get paid. They give you a mousepad showing if you will get paid on certain days. You work all year long and regular employees only get 1 day for Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years. -Micromanagement and consent surveillance. You are tracked on the computer and how long you stay in a program or if you are away from your desk for too long it will get flagged. -They hired a new company from the outside to monitor you as well to the point where you can't use your phone. They want to give you a flip phone. -Very toxic management and HR staff... very unfair and will give you zero give if you need to work from home.. they will tell you use your PTO. -Zero career growth whatsoever, everyone. -Favoritism gets you higher up in the company. -Very behind in tech & software on the corporate side but they want to have the latest for the vendors. -High revolving door, very churn & burn mentality. -End to WFH on Fridays... You will only be coming in for 4 hours... tough if you are traveling from far away... -Zero culture and no work-life balance

It was an incredible, one of a kind place to work at prior to the hiring of the current CEO Menashe Horowitz.

Summary of Company Grievances ​The current leadership has shifted the company toward an authoritarian management style, characterized by a steady decline in employee benefits and compensation. Salary increases are negligible and fail to keep pace with inflation, leaving wages well below market standards. ​Key issues within the organization include: ​Leadership and Culture: CEO Menashe Horowitz is perceived as unreceptive to feedback, surrounding himself with inexperienced "yes-men." This has created an environment lacking genuine leadership. ​Work-Life Balance: Flexibility has been severely curtailed, including the elimination of remote-work Fridays. Furthermore, the company remains open on all U.S. federal holidays but closes for Jewish holidays, forcing employees to use their own paid time off (PTO) during those closures to avoid losing pay. ​Recruitment Challenges: Due to a wealth of negative reviews on platforms like Glassdoor, the company is struggling to attract qualified talent. ​Business Ethics: Management's operational practices are reportedly dishonest, utilizing aggressive "strong-arm" tactics with external vendors despite publicly claiming a commitment to transparency. ​Conclusion: While there was once a strong fondness for the company, its recent downward trajectory, stagnant wages, and poor treatment of staff indicate that it is no longer a viable place to work, making it time for employees to move on.
