Pros

if you want flexibility then this is a job for you.

Cons

There is almost no communication here. I have tried and tried so then I have to guess what I am doing. They pay you the same amount and add two or three showcase items to your demonstration event. How dumb is it to do fruit and a new release dvd. Who thinks this crap up? You can't be honest with them, cause no one cares except for the bottom line.

Pros

Compensation is decent if you're located near the facility of the events, commute can be beyond 40 miles on occasion. Mileage pay is at or below the minimum which doesn't encourage interaction between events teams; as well as removing incentive to drive for additional hours. Benefits are on par with other companies including health, dental, vision, and 401k. Time off is reasonable and varies by management. A great company to work for if you want to build the experience, but advancement is limited. Primarily focused on sales and merchandising, there is a definite opportunity to build individual understanding of how important it is to business.

Cons

Extreme level of micromanaging! Even in a supervisor role you will be constantly hounded to provided clarification despite your ability to manage your designated events team. I've been in the position for over 2 years and still have to defend every decision made to improve my team. Opportunity to advance is typically only available to those willing to relocate outside of their current state. Work/Life balance is significantly sacrificed to meet company demands and often requires long hours outside of the office to maintain 'compliance'. Compliance is often changed and varies per individual; this needs to be standard across the company to avoid confusion and create a positive atmosphere.

Pros

I worked at CROSSMARK in a Sam's Club, where I was an Event Specialist - basically, the person who hands out samples of free food. The work is easy, the hours aren't taxing, and the pay is wonderful for the work you do. You meet a lot of people, you get to experience lots of new recipes and try new types of food, which is pretty neat. Schedule is adaptable and easy to work with school, etc.

Cons

Standing on concrete floors for long periods of time is very stressful on your knees and feet. On slow days, it was agonizingly boring - you are confined to a ten-foot radius from your station, and get no breaks aside from your 30-minute lunch period. It's only a part-time position, which could be easily made full-time.
