Pros

you're working for a sports team and that has its perks. off season is slow so work/life balance is comfortable. attire is business casual so the work environment is structurally relaxed.

Cons

no one gets paid but upper management (Sr. officials, Directors, VPs, & Pres of depts). owner and CEO are cheap, they're willing to let go excellent talent & replace with a new grad that they can pay less or make an intern. all the key directors and higher ups all live in the same part of town and show favoritism to certain people like they're the popular kids in high school, which is how they run the organization, like a high school.

Learn skills and understand operations immediately. Closed mouths don’t get fed. Earn your opportunity.

Making hourly is rough to sustain yourself.

Pros

Working in sports. You will die working in sports (literally, nobody makes $$). Benefits and the experiences are solid though. Not the job experience. The sports experience.

Cons

DEI program; lack of training, expertise, and overall knowledge of the business and sales practices. Promotions based on likeability and tenure, not value added. Which is crazy for a sales team to do. Pay is awful and whole office hates white people and men. God forbid you're both. Forced to stand around during games hoping to sell someone but its a complete waste of time. 14 hour long shifts on gamedays. Not a real sales organization
