Changed - Manager CBI Research Employee Review

I'd highly recommend establishing your career at CBI. CBI is the best in the business at staying on the forefront of innovative conference topics and producing high-quality events. I have been working at CBI for several years and continue to develop professionally and love being surrounded by a group of passionate, driven and collaborative team members. I've also been able to maintain a very good work-life balance and leadership has been very understanding and supportive in regards to this. We are also poised for growth and it's very exciting to be a part of it.

Conference production is a fast-paced environment and if you are not the type of individual that thrives off of results and aren't intrinsically motivated to be successful this may not be the place for you.

Project Management Skills Travel Opportunities Forming Connections with Industry Market Leaders Earning Potential (if you are willing to devote 60+ hours a week and weekends)

CBI is comprised of many intelligent people who are passionate about what they do, but the expectations are unrealistic and not achievable. At the end of the day quality is sacrificed for quantity and conference topics are sliced and diced to ensure “X” number of events are brought to market. For many recent graduates the workload can seem overwhelming with very little upside. There is absolutely no corporate culture with the exception of travelling onsite to the events with your colleagues. Most of the organization (with the exception of 6 people in mgmt.) are considered expendable and it is hard to be motivated when you are undervalued and never heard. The organization needs to move forward with the times by innovating and embracing technology in order to produce successful events.
