Pros

- Unique events - Authentic marketing experience - Enthusiastic co-workers

Cons

- Did not hold all Student Brand Managers accountable for the same amount of work (Each Student Brand Manager is required three reports and three comments on Red Bull University each week. Many Student Brand Managers barely ever reported or commented and were still paid the same amount and were never fired. This can be very deflating if you are actually doing your job.) - Strict chain of command on initiatives, not much room for your own creativity - Work culture too laid back at times - Too focused on the numbers from events

Pros

- Plenty of autonomy over work - Great culture, coworkers, and benefits - Generous work-life balance

Cons

- Political environment where the best ideas generally don't win - As the company has grown, it's become more bureacratic and corporate, causing slower internal decision cycles, misaligned incentives between teams, and ultimately a loss in entrepreneurial spirit
