Pros

Great holidays off (loved Thanksgiving/Christmas time because this was the only time that people seems to like one another), 401K, PTO and to work from home options. Mr. Freeman is an incredibly a nice person. There is truth, if you treat your employees well, that will take care of you, and be happy.

Cons

No confidential relationship between Managers/Employee. Trust broken. Gossip and backstabbing. Management sucks; Manager tells everyone business; caused a lot of conflict among employees. Threatening to go to HR always resulted in a firing. HR wants to terminate without all the facts. No promotions or advancement unless you're in the "same circle", so no room for growth or opportunity as they tell you upon hire. Or unless you're so-in-so's family member. Again, toxic managers all around. I used to really enjoy working for Freeman; all of this changed within the past 4 years. A lot of people have lost a lot of trust; can't trust managers, VPs are rude, as well.

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.
