Pros

Unlimited Time off (but good luck trying to use it). Many of the people that work on the show teams are great. Good for early career/entry level to gain experience and get some travel in.

Cons

Corporate “leadership.” Human resources (People &Culture?!?!?!). Attempts at company-wide programs i.e. diversity & inclusion, sustainability, have failed and seem like for perception only. Acquisitions and launches do not go well. Low-end and user-UNfriendly systems and processes. They just do a lot of things that result in resentment from employees and vendors; low morale is the new normal at Emerald

Pros

-Depending on what team you're on, you get a lot of autonomy. (on the flip side, see con- if you're on the wrong team) -Good benefits -Fun events & Travel opportunities

Cons

-People getting laid off left and right all time. One minute you have a team mate and the next they are just gone. -Management is top heavy and operates like a fraternity -If you're on the wrong team every move is watched -Your job is NEVER safe -Imagine with the acquisition that was just announced by Apollo that the reason for layoffs was to become lean before transition. I would hedge bets that this will also continue to be a numbers game and positions are going to be uncertain -Sales plans are always ambiguous and there were even times where the plan wasn't out until several months into the year. Expected to sell over and above but didn't always have a sales plan to follow. It was always changing.
