    Amazing Company to Work For

    Nov 15, 2022 - Event Manager in Pacific Beach, CA

    Pros

    The owners (Than, Paul, JD) are truly amazing people. They are so humble, honest, caring and truly care about their employees, students, and communities. They have changed the lives of many and continue to do so. God blessed me when I found that job and when Than hired me. I would recommend this job to anyone seeking to work for good, honest people. Hands down, best company I have ever worked for. I wish them the best of success.

    Cons

    No downsides. Biggest Con was Covid ending the whole road team due to not being able to travel or have groups of people in one place.
