Pros

Flexible schedule (Come when you can.; If you can only do 6 hours, that’s acceptable.) Everyone’s friendly. Sometimes, there is free food and snacks. The work is decently proportional to the pay. It’s quick money. Protective equipment is provided (masks, latex & rubber gloves, safety glasses, aprons, shirts)

Cons

Have to deal with odorous waste (You get used to it. ; Some people can’t handle it though.) Sometimes, you have to work under unbearable heat as there is poor ventilation and lack of shade at times. The free food and snacks aren’t healthy (mostly processed/ultra-processed). Dietary restrictions are not always accommodated for. Benefits aren’t all that great. (Might as well do without it.) Getting to the work station from parking is quite a walk (same for getting to the break room). There is only one microwave to share for everyone in the breakroom and it is not a powerful microwave, so you have to wait a bit. Turnover rate is high.

Pros

1. Genuinely fun environment. You're working live shows at a major 16,000-capacity venue, so no two events feel the same. 2. Strong sense of teamwork; the ops crew is small and coordinated, so you actually rely on and trust the people around you. 3. Real, transferable experience: crowd management, security screening, event setup/breakdown, and real-time coordination during incidents. 4. Good exposure to how a venue actually runs, including coordination with partner staff like Legends Global. 5. Flexible seasonal structure worked well for me (if you want event-industry experience without a year-round commitment) and you can talk to management about going to other venues during off-season.

Cons

1. Seasonal and event-driven, so hours are inconsistent and concentrated around the concert season. 2. Outdoor amphitheater work is weather-dependent; shifts happen rain or shine (at my venue: Mann Center), and conditions can sometimes be tough. 3. Physically demanding with long nights, late breakdowns, and a lot of time on your feet, you've gotta really enjoy and appreciate shows. 4. Limited long-term advancement within a seasonal role.

Pros

Enjoyable atmosphere working in entertainment

Cons

The budget could be bigger to allow for employment growth or higher pay. Pay stays the same even after years of commitment.
