Terrible management - clueless and hopeless “leaders”

Pros

Free concerts, but so what.

Cons

Work 7 days a week. Sales efforts never stop and operational tasks always grow. Management is useless. They micromanage and bring nothing to the table.

Pros

Company was good and telling us that we were not in an harms way. Good benefits up until the point where they made that difficult decisive decision to furlough immediately employees. They have a Great Place To Work Survey and all the fronts to make it appear to be a GREAT company and a great place to work. To boost moral Rapino brought on people like Ferrel and other artists to talk about "fun things" to get our minds off of what was probably going to happen, which did. Company used to care about it's employees but now it's just putting up a fake facade that it does.

Cons

Company I thought was "Great Place To Work For" till they furloughed me and tons of other people with no severance, no pay, no fall back. They basically decided that they couldn't pay our salaries and said, see you in October, but i'm slowly questioning that as well. Once HR made the cut, they didn't give us any update or feedback on whether or not we were coming back. Basically leaving us to fend for ourselves. We are now nearing August and we have had no update from the leadership or HR. The only updates they are making is about donating to BLM and how they are going to spend millions of dollars elsewhere for causes they apparently didn't have money for. So they didn't have money for their employees, (to give them a buffer) but they have money for causes that have no direct financial impact to the business.. This is poor leadership at it's finest and just over all disgusting. To make matters worse, they started donations drives for their stage crews and events people for their customers to donate to them. I know it's hard times, but vowing to give 10+ million of dollar toward causes internally and externally when you have sidelined hundreds if not thousands of workers, is beyond me and you should do the right thing
