Pros

Nothing good to report about

Cons

Arrogant owner/CEO, managers that do nothing or know anything but pretend they know the world. I work at ICM until 2010, I left after the Vancouver Olympics due to securing better employment that suited my career goals at the time. One thing that stands out significantly to me is when I had a terrible flu, we were supposed to go down to Kelowna to work the Tool concert but it was cancelled due to the highway being too icy and the snow. I was told to come down to the office anyways to clean out an old secret service ambulance in the middle of the winter, while sick and because I was using paint thinner to remove scuffs I had to keep the doors wide open. I ended up getting sicker but was still forced to stay and then work the next three days in a row. I was really lucky I didn’t end up in the hospital. Another instance was for years we weren’t “entitled” to overtime when working long events(sometimes 18 hours in a row) until someone filed a complaint with employment standards and brent was then forced to pay out.

Pros

Had a great time working various public events from special events to black tie. Events from small and intimate to large exceeding over 250k people.

Cons

There were no real problems with working for ICM. They offered many opportunities for people to work part time and enjoy special events.
