Pros

People who work here are pretty nice... But they don't really care if you're productive. If you don't want to work and don't want to learn anything, this is a great place to be.

Cons

The direction of the company is so misguided. All of their reporting is trash and senior leadership is so wildly ineffective it's mind-blowing they're still in business. SO MUCH manual process it'll make your head spin. They'll put 5 overpaid yahoos on the same project to create a spreadsheet. There's a lot of repetition because everyone acts as though they are a freelance consultant. What I mean is, there will be five different groups of people working on the same stupid thing at the same time. This is because there is no real top-down vision or directives from the company. Everyone is just running around doing whatever they feel like and telling themselves it's productive.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
