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 Intercompany processes can be pretty outdated which might result in larger unnecessary workloads.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

Great holidays off (loved Thanksgiving/Christmas time because this was the only time that people seems to like one another), 401K, PTO and to work from home options. Mr. Freeman is an incredibly a nice person. There is truth, if you treat your employees well, that will take care of you, and be happy.

Cons

No confidential relationship between Managers/Employee. Trust broken. Gossip and backstabbing. Management sucks; Manager tells everyone business; caused a lot of conflict among employees. Threatening to go to HR always resulted in a firing. HR wants to terminate without all the facts. No promotions or advancement unless you're in the "same circle", so no room for growth or opportunity as they tell you upon hire. Or unless you're so-in-so's family member. Again, toxic managers all around. I used to really enjoy working for Freeman; all of this changed within the past 4 years. A lot of people have lost a lot of trust; can't trust managers, VPs are rude, as well.
