Hallmark Cards

Roses are red; violets are blue; if you work at Hallmark, you'll be happy too. "One of the best places to work in the world" and a "fantastic experience" are common comments from Hallmark employees. Hallmark is broken into creative and business sections, with a cultural division between the two. "Corporate culture here is fairly conservative," while "some of the artists wear shorts." The "creative culture is a bit more flamboyant," one insider notes. Hallmark employees consider themselves to be more like "members of a family" than employees at a major corporation. The company's benefits package is "one of the best in the nation." It is an expansive plan that is "well above average, including retirement funds and free medical and dental." However, salary is described as simply "fair." A recent hire points out that "this business is not a high-paying one," but longtime employees "seem to be happy."
