Pros

Some locations have a very team oriented atmosphere, many employees care very much for their co-workers.

Cons

Leadership doesn't listen to key contributors. Work life balance is non-existent. There are systemic problems that continue to go unsolved. The company is losing long tenured and new employees at a rapid pace. Many senior leaders are from outside the industry, which isn't inherently bad, but many fail to learn the nuances of the business. They think they get it, but they don't grasp it as well as they think. Leadership also talks up their values, and I believe that they think they stick to them, but they don't practice them as well as they think.

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.
