Pros
I had to rewrite my review because the fake reviews that are being placed are so comical/pathetic. Any review that compares SmithBucklin to Apple or GE means the CEO or HR is writing the review. Another giveaway? Any review that states the only negative thing to say is "it's not for everyone" or "the environment is fast paced". Especially when the review says "I don't think it's a con but others may". If the company focused as much on their employees/issues stated here as they do battling negative reviews on this site, they'd be in a much better place. That being said, depending on your service unit and client, you can gain some great entry level experience in the business world to take elsewhere. Great place to enter into the event planning industry.
Cons
Senior management is very aware of their low ratings here and are doing everything they can to get them higher, hence all the recent 5 star reviews. Unless you are a male coming in at a director level or above, go somewhere else - senior management will not care about you. They refuse to pay attention to the high turnover and low pay, as well as a model that simply does not work. I've never seen a more out of touch CEO.
