Pros

If you’re good at carrying balls, this is the place for you!

Cons

Management is extremely terrible and unprofessional. You have directors that are bipolar or complete cowards who will never care about their team. Only if it benefits them then suddenly you get recognition. These directors are so toxic that they pit their team members against each other. What kind of company allows such kind of leadership? Ultimately it’ll reflect badly on the kind of GM/CEOs/chairman that the company have isn’t it? How embarrassing to be in such a toxic company that instead of working together, they make you fight against one another. It’s surprising how such a company can thrive to be a multi billion dollar company. Someone should really audit the hell out of them. Who knows they engage in illegal stuff. The worse part of this multi billion dollar company is that they are absolutely not willing to change the computers. Mind you, the computers doesn’t even have PDF/Microsoft office and we are living in the twentieth century. On top of that, when one of the staff request for the simplest necessity, a pen, the management replied this staff saying that they can only request for items when they make a sale. Wow right? That’s still not all. The management had a meeting and one of the B.O.D suggested that since other offices in other locations has a pool table, maybe they should have a pool table in this particular office too. Doesn’t that leave you speechless? Sure that there isn’t one perfect organization on earth, but this company is too much. No medical benefits, low salary, no quality events. It’s one of the most hypocritical companies ever. They claim to produce strategic events but it’s not even the case. They re-do events over and over again. With similar topics and overly high priced cost to attend the event. How is that strategic? The management constantly asks staff for their feedback on how to improve things, but once you give a feedback that is not what they want to hear, you’re immediately blacklisted. This will hinder you from getting a promotion. The promotion that is given is pathetic. It’s only a $500 increment for managerial level. An assistant manager get paid lesser than an associate in a different company. If that’s not embarrassing then shame shouldn’t exist in the world at all.

Pros

I started at Marcus Evans Group in 2017 as a 22 year old kid, and left of my own volition during the peak of covid due to how it impacted the in person summit business model. I worked in Delegate Acquisition (DA) in the downtown Chicago office. I've now been at 4 companies in my career, and Marcus Evans is by far the best. First of all, it's challenging. If you are afraid to cold call, stay away. Having said that, the sales training here is superb. Whenever I interviewed for other jobs, they were always massively impressed by my time at ME group. The firm has a reputation for crafting excellent sellers through a well thought out process. This company looks great on your resume. Secondly, the opportunity for advancement is unparalleled. The org cares about one thing above all else; PERFORMANCE. If you perform, you can achieve incredible career growth. From my first job out of college, I was promoted 4 times to the point where I had a team of about 5 people under me. I learned how to pitch, how to lead a team, and how to build value with C-Level executives at major organizations. Enjoy travel? You will have the chance to attend summits in legit 5 star hotels and resorts around the country in places like LA, Las Vegas, Boston, Palm Beach and more. You get a real taste of international business. I worked mainly on the investment themed programs, where I was made the lead of a real estate focused event worth million of dollars... At the age of 24. You need to lean in. If you're smart, hard working, creative, and a bit ruthless, you will make real money here and experience tremendous personal / professional development. Once you prove yourself you will be given the chance to impact the direction of the business at the highest levels, providing insights and feedback to the CEO. I cannot stress enough how much you can grow in all areas at this company. As far as networking, you will become a trusted advisor the the C - Level leaders of fortune 1000 companies. I also forged incredible friendships, several of whom I still see on a regular basis. The people here are smart and interesting. It's a super diverse company with offices all over the world including folks from all sorts of countries and backgrounds in the Chicago office.

Cons

The main draw backs are: 1. Relatively low base salary. I believe some progress has been made on this since I left a few years ago, but this is a company for people who plan to perform and make a lot of money from commissions and bonus incentives. 2. OLD SCHOOL. This is a traditional British firm. The tech stack is quite outdated. The good news is that software / SRM obsessed processes do not get in your way. 3. No remote work. It's pretty much 5 days a week in the office.
