When we are not busy, they encourage you to take time off, and be with your family (but the trade show industry is busy when you are the leading company, so it is hard to find the time).
Cons
Schedule, pay, bonus structure, and culture

Thank you for your review. While we are a growing company adapting to the changes in our industry, we acknowledge that our sense of “Family” is still at the heart of what we do. Our values remain the same and we take pride in continuing the legacy of passion and hard work on which our company was built. We also acknowledge that, at times, it may feel like things have changed – and that’s true! We have adapted and innovated to remain #1 in our industry, but we never lose sight of what has made us so successful – our people.
Work life balance can be good at times and then it could be horrible. Opportunity for career advancement is there if you wait it
Cons
Salary is not great considering the amount of work we do, plus salaried positions do not make any OT money when we have very long weeks working on show site. Yearly annual raise is 3% which is nothing. The only significant raise you can get is if you get promoted to a more senior role. Also the traveling becomes brutal when you are gone for 10 or more days at a time for these shows.
