Surprisingly to be such a big corporation, they're very family-oriented. You come in contact with so many people in the field and all of them provide a sense of community. I enjoyed my time there, had the opportunity for growth and training. Glad I got opportunities to travel.
Cons
The schedule can get overwhelming at times, show season keeps you busy. There is no such thing as "no" when it comes to new business, so you have to find a way to male it work.

Work life balance can be good at times and then it could be horrible. Opportunity for career advancement is there if you wait it
Cons
Salary is not great considering the amount of work we do, plus salaried positions do not make any OT money when we have very long weeks working on show site. Yearly annual raise is 3% which is nothing. The only significant raise you can get is if you get promoted to a more senior role. Also the traveling becomes brutal when you are gone for 10 or more days at a time for these shows.
