Pros

Good company if you are management!

Cons

Although, I witnessed many departments with great mangament. The department I was in failed. Management lacks any type of skills whatsoever. It is ashame that the company went corprate so quick that it allowed many of the existing skilless employees to jockey into positions of authority. These indivuals micro-manage when they shouldn't and don't manage or oversee enough when they should. While some employees milk the system of overtime by coming in when not needed, since they aren't overseen by anyone, they rack up empty hours of time to clients which cost them and take away from the companys bottom line. However, If you like to polish the rusty sheriffs badge of upper managment, then you might make somewhere.

Pros

The pros were the per diem and the opportunity to travel. I really enjoyed visiting new cities and collaborating with kind, interesting people from across the country at different show sites. The pay was also very strong during busy seasons.

Cons

If you want to join a company where employees are undervalued, expected to obey rather than think critically, and favoritism is openly visible, then please avoid this company. The environment often felt heavily micromanaged at every level of leadership, with experiences of both covert and overt racism in the workplace. There was also a strong sense of competition and distrust among coworkers, where people would undermine one another for personal gain. Leadership and upper management appeared far more focused on optics and appearances than the actual well-being of the employees working on the show floor.
