Pros

Good experience and connections. Use of gear not easily accessible to self employed operators.

Cons

Promises not kept, impossible to plan anything without getting prior approval for a day off as you are technically on call 24/7 and expected to be able to get out your door ready to go to a job within an hour of being called

Pros

Great way to fast track your career, growth is substantial and the protections the company offers versus freelance are spectacular

Cons

On the road a lot, and if you aren’t comfortable being on call it’s not for you.

Pros

The pros are that you will get to work with national clients and have your work out there. You will also get hands on with gear and equipment that smaller companies may not have.

Cons

I could write a novel...You will have no personal life. You will be on call 24 hours a day. You will get called when you are doing your laundry or cooking dinner or just making everyday plans. You will spend most of your time driving endless hours alone. You will have to work as a "one-man-band" and run lights, camera, sound, media management by yourself. This job also comes with a restrictive covenant that will prevent you from working for any of Go To Team's clients and since the client list is so expansive, you may have to find a different occupation for a year. Poor leadership. The office is very much like a high school clique. They will be your "friends" until you decide to leave. They will have no problem overworking you and not giving enough rest between shoots.
