Pros

Gives a good insight into how the tradeshow/event management business works. Not a typical 9-5 office job every day. Involves light to medium amount of travel and touches on not only customer service tasks, but also marketing, logistics, sales and communication. Per diem & benefits are great.

Cons

Overtime hours can be brutal sometimes in fall and spring season. Not the most ideal job for family oriented people. Intercompany processes can be pretty outdated which might result in larger unnecessary workloads. If your colleagues leave/are fired - get ready to take on their workloads (because all of a sudden, rehiring for their spot is no longer 'in the budget')

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.
