Pros
Market leading products surviving on client good will and a few die hard long term employees. Great travel options. Perfect place if you want to get away with little work as the managers haven't got a clue what we do, what the events are about or how to do it. Good opportunity to be promoted to manage others as you don't need experience and the staff turn over is so quick most people get a chance. Great people outside of my business unit. A few years ago I would have had a much longer list.
Cons
By far the worst back stabbing, I only care about myself place I've ever worked. Production and marketing are paid on GP while other departments are focused on revenue in any which way they can achieve it. My events grew YOY but I made less money while people in the sponsorship sales teams greatly exceeded their targets by selling valueless packages which impacted my GP! Aggressive unrealistic targets that make staff work in their own interests not the companies interests and certainly not in a teams interests. No team spirit, big blame culture which leads to no one trusting anyone they work with or their manager.
