Positive Reviews From Adorama Employees

  • What is the best part about your compensation package?
    Paid weekly and for all Jewish holidays
  • What is the best part about your compensation package?
    free 10,000 life and access to EAP
  • What makes you most happy at work?
    respect among co-workers to meet our goals

Constructive Feedback From Adorama Employees

  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Showing loyalty to loyal workers. Recognizing that certain people are using the company only as a stepping-stone to something else & are only interested in their own self-progression. Adorama was better when it really was a family business when we all cared about our customers' needs; not like today
  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    To much emphasis on getting new customers and not enough on retaining the old ones - which I think is more important. There should be fair compensation for everyone whose work builds the business. Not just a select few.
  • What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
    They should remember we are a team & that we are here for the customers. Not the other way around.
