Pros

Good people and variety of projects. Customer service focus is strong. Good benefits and ESOP program. Creative company looking to the future.

Cons

All departments are understaffed, working long hours with few breaks between events (no days off). Training is practically non-existent. Weak leadership in many departments with little power to make changes. No rules = no accountability..."fly by the seat of the your pants" mentality.

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.
