WNBA Reviews

Former Employee – worked at WNBA full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – Playing with the best women's basketball players in the world is amazing.
The fans really love the game and appreciate the players.
Traveling seeing different cities in America.
Connecting with the community through events, basketball clinics, autograph signing and the like.

Cons – The schedule is a bit demanding.
Travel can be inconvenient.

Advice to Senior Management – Hire former players and those with experience working with professional teams to coach and work in the front office. Their experience and expertise will lend to a better work environment.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Current Employee – been working at WNBA

Pros – Working in the sports industry with many great people

Cons – Sometimes can be too many hoops to jump through to get something green lighted. More freedom needed

Advice to Senior Management – Allow people more freedom and give out goals, expectations and compensation details out sooner. Too much time wasted planning

Former Employee – worked at WNBA

Pros – -Interesting work
-Exciting to be in the sports industry
-If you get connected (make friends) with the right people (this does not require doing actual work) you will be given great opportunities.

Cons – -Promotions/new hires based on being friends not on past experience or ability.
-While there is a lot of talk to increase sales and visibility very little is done due to lack of acknowledgment by managers

Advice to Senior Management – Hire and promote based on ability and experience!

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at WNBA

Pros – Some of the best reasons is the people. The relationships I have established throughout my career with WNBA are lifelong and will continue to help me achieve success in my next career.

Cons – The downsides are few. But one is the turnover. The stress of what have you done for me lately. And most of all is the travel.

Advice to Senior Management – My advice would be to establish some type of program to help in players transition once they retire. Currently there are no programs to help or benefit retired players.
