Pros

Great benefits, free concert ticket raffles, free occasional merch, employee lounge with nice coffee machines, and snacks, etc. Nice place to get experience, but most people leave.

Cons

- Rarely promote, rather hire temp to save - Pay is low, even at corporate level - Management Perks: get to work from home, another state, preferred parking, con for us regular emps. - Secretive on Important changes: Large part of 7060 Hollywood and 1800 Highland staff was relocated to Beverly Hills. The move was kept a secret until a month away from the move. People are upset, parking has not been confirmed, people's commutes have increased by min. 40-1.5 hour, have quit, or voiced quitting plans for early next year.

We are sorry to hear that despite what you liked about all the great benefits and perks, you didn’t have a great experience here. The company’s culture philosophy is around “taking care of our employees.” If you felt that wasn’t the case for you with regard to pay – we hope that you reached out to your HR partner to discuss this. Thanks for your feedback about the timing of the move communication – helps us understand what to do differently next time.

Pros

1. Genuinely fun environment. You're working live shows at a major 16,000-capacity venue, so no two events feel the same. 2. Strong sense of teamwork; the ops crew is small and coordinated, so you actually rely on and trust the people around you. 3. Real, transferable experience: crowd management, security screening, event setup/breakdown, and real-time coordination during incidents. 4. Good exposure to how a venue actually runs, including coordination with partner staff like Legends Global. 5. Flexible seasonal structure worked well for me (if you want event-industry experience without a year-round commitment) and you can talk to management about going to other venues during off-season.

Cons

1. Seasonal and event-driven, so hours are inconsistent and concentrated around the concert season. 2. Outdoor amphitheater work is weather-dependent; shifts happen rain or shine (at my venue: Mann Center), and conditions can sometimes be tough. 3. Physically demanding with long nights, late breakdowns, and a lot of time on your feet, you've gotta really enjoy and appreciate shows. 4. Limited long-term advancement within a seasonal role.
