Pros

Everyone there, including the students is very career oriented which keeps you motivated while you're working. The passion people have is inspiring!

Cons

Lots of run-around/ red tape Not enough communication between colleges or departments within a college--people are stuck in the "Husky Shuffle," being sent from one building to another because no one understands what goes on outside of their position.

Pros

Great opportunity to learn about professional audio, lighting, video systems, and other event production technologies. Access to training and guidance from ETC-certified staff, providing valuable hands-on learning experience. Opportunity to work on exciting events and participate in a variety of engaging and enjoyable projects.

Cons

Management was one of the biggest challenges. Leadership, particularly at the director level, often lacked the technical understanding needed to make informed decisions, which made it difficult for technical teams to work effectively. Compensation was below market expectations, and there were concerns about hiring standards. Team members sometimes lacked the qualifications or skills required for their roles, and communication across departments was often unclear and inconsistent.
