Reviews about "people"
Return to all Reviews- 3.0Sep 18, 2023Anonymous EmployeeFormer Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
Entertainment industry full of hard working people who love to ensure customers get a great experience
Cons
You are not provided with lots of resources to get the job done. "Entrepreneurial" attitude means figure it out on your own because they won't help.
- 3.0May 12, 2021Parking AssistantFormer Employee, less than 1 yearMaryland Heights, MO
Pros
Entry-level positions are understandably lax and feature significant turnaround. There are constantly new opportunities to meet people and share in the concert with guests. It is pretty much what you expect, with not many employees staying for long.
Cons
Parking is usually based on short shifts of action followed by downtime with little activity. After the guests file inside, and before they leave, the sun can be sweltering and there seems to be a lack of direction until orders come suddenly.
- 4.0Jan 19, 2023Guest ServicesCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearRaleigh, NC
Pros
- Great managers and well defined business operations - Clear Job Roles and excellent training - Concert tix are a perk! - Flexibility in scheduling - Live Nation values diversity and the company stepped up to assist people in the entertainment industry during the pandemic
Cons
- Decent pay but could be better - Hours available aren't usually enough for full-time work, but great part time job

Pros
Live Nation had an amazing and motivated team of people who truly care about and love the music industry.
Cons
Although it may seem like a huge company, a lot of the local and international level positions are filled by veterans who have no intention or reason to go elsewhere. This means that there is little room for growth within the company in many different departments.
- 4.0May 31, 2023Usher/Ticket TakerCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearLos Angeles, CA
Pros
Flexible job if you like working at night and need extra money. The people are nice and you can choose the dates you want to work each month.
Cons
You don't always get assigned to all the dates you request to work. No career movement in this position.
- 3.0Mar 10, 2014Event Programming SpecialistCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsChicago, IL
Pros
You get to deal with music that you love and a very eclectic group of people
Cons
Long hours due to artist demands
- 1.0Mar 20, 2022Account ManagerFormer EmployeeMelbourne
Pros
Sometimes get to go to concerts and the few good people left working there after mass redundancies
Cons
Management is dreadful, HR is useless, Huge Bullying and Sexual Discrimination issue from the top and middle management. Crap pay and sadly the fun of music goes away very quickly when you settle in and realise there is no progression, no raises, sexist culture, homophobic, very shut up and don't speak mentality, women staff treated awfully my male managers and staff as well as no team culture or loyalty, one of the most mentally and physically unhealthy workplaces I have ever worked. Would never recommend this company.

generous benefits and some very talented employees

The pandemic was very hard on this company and a lot of people lost their jobs.

Pros
Quite a nice environment - I was equally exposed to people who were extremely friendly and others who were abrasive.
Cons
Unpaid internship at the time, no perks as an intern of the one of the world's largest concert promoter
- 5.0Jun 21, 2021Sales InternFormer Intern
Pros
The people that I worked with were amazing and always tried to give me the help I needed. This was a great stepping stone to get into the industry and make connections. I loved working with a smaller team.
Cons
It was a little more hands-off than I had anticipated, but I still learned a lot. It was also off-season at the venue, so there were no concerts happening to really execute what I was learning in a live setting.
