Pros

Company allows flexibility in the workday Casual dress Decent benefits – Medical, Dental, Vision, 401K, PTO Many different types of projects/variety of the work

Cons

There are absolutely no career advancement paths for employees of all levels and functions. Company loves to talk about building bench strength but has no plan for the talents they acquired. Be prepare for career and salary stagnation. Tiny annual raises that are laughable even for people who received excellent performance reviews and during years of solid revenue growth. Risk averse corporate culture makes innovation almost impossible. Leadership maintains the slow and steady wins the race approach and is not actively guarding itself from possible disruptive market forces that could take down established business models quickly. Again, leadership wants to do the right things and says the right things but actual and meaningful change and improvements are not happening.

Pros

Work life balance can be good at times and then it could be horrible. Opportunity for career advancement is there if you wait it

Cons

Salary is not great considering the amount of work we do, plus salaried positions do not make any OT money when we have very long weeks working on show site. Yearly annual raise is 3% which is nothing. The only significant raise you can get is if you get promoted to a more senior role. Also the traveling becomes brutal when you are gone for 10 or more days at a time for these shows.
