Fun Job! - Ticket Operations Coordinator Atlanta Spirit Employee Review

Former Coworkers and work environment.

The amount of hours required to advance.

Comp'd tickets to Hawks and Thrashers games in good to great seating sections.

The organization has an identity crisis. Too many silos to count. The accounting department is archaic in its processes. There are LOADS of people throughout the organization that are resistant to change. The Arena staff and the Teams (Hawks/Thrashers) staff do not function together as a "team." The relationship is very adversarial. The Sponsorship group makes promises that it can't keep and does not work in concert with Marketing. Every employee would be better suited to receive training from consultants who are experts in Emotional Intelligence versus having consultants in to examine what is wrong with the organization (the story never changes) and then provide a framework to management that no one has any interest in implementing. Several department heads need proper leadership training. The Affiliative Style of Leadership runs rampant throughout the organization although it may be effective for some organizations; it is not suited for Atlanta Spirit, LLC. Lastly, Atlanta Spirit must find another strong CEO (Bernard Mullin was outstanding) that knows how to lead an organization and be allowed to do just that - LEAD without the input of the wacky numerous owners blocking progress.
