Pros

Great work environment. Access to shows and Artist meet & Greets. Faced paced and exciting. A lot to learn provided you take initiative.

Cons

Long hours, not much guarantee of promotions and extremely competitive. Unfriendly competition and leaves little room for a personal life

Pros

If you have a supervisor open and willing to nurture you, you're golden. Some supervisors truly believe in developing lower management. Even if you don't end up staying, you will have learned enough to help you grow elsewhere.

Cons

Ridiculously long hours, work/life balance is nearly non-existent. They try to squeeze too much out of a single employee instead of addressing workload disparity.
