Thank you for expressing feedback about your experience. We understand that this is a difficult situation, and assure you that decisions about layoffs were not made lightly. We have a commitment to equal opportunity employment for all employees and applicants, and our Human Resources team supported the business to ensure the selection process regarding employment status were made in a fair and consistent manner. Factors including the business impact of COVID-19, current customer demand and short-term planned business were evaluated closely, and unfortunately Freeman had to eliminate or alter certain positions based on these factors. We appreciate your commitment and contributions to Freeman during your time with us, and we wish you all the best moving forward.

Pros

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.
