Reviews about "work environment"
Return to all Reviews- 1.0Oct 10, 2023Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee, more than 5 years
Pros
Get to see live music.
Cons
Livenation does not care about its people at all. They will use you up and spit you out if you have any opinion other than those of the top white men in leadership. HR is a joke - they allow toxic and hostile work environments to continue despite multiple complaints from various staff members. HR is not there to help you, they are there to protect the company from you. So many conflicts of interest in this business. Managers hiring family members and significant others with no experience but then give them more money than other people in similar roles. There is zero training so be expected to teach yourself everything while also working 70-100 hours a week regularly. There is no one to help you as every venue is setup different. Everyone that was worth keeping was replaced when a new white man was put in charge. Be ready to work amongst narcissists and a lot of them. Price gauging is the ultimate goal for livenation; how can we squeeze more money out of every guest.

Pros
Good location, young and interesting team.
Cons
Extremely immature and political work environment. Ridiculous project schedules with a sweatshop atmosphere.
1Live Nation Entertainment Response8yThanks for your comments, agree that technical capability is extremely important and we will be looking for this when hiring certain roles. To balance that we also hire people for their leadership traits and attitude, so a balance of academia and personality aims to create a more inclusive environment.

Fun and interesting work environment. Tickets when work was done.

If you don't like talking to people, don't take this job. The public can be the worst sometimes.
