Pros

We get to do great things for the entertainment industry and be involved with cutting edge research and development that will help to guide us in to the mobile ticketing future. I love Ticketmaster and everyone I work with on the daily.

Cons

You know, I used to hate Rapino after we (TM) merged with Live Nation. I had heard so many awful things about him in the rumor mill. But after listening to his quarterly calls, I have changed that opinion. He really cares about his employees health and well being. He expands on our health care at every opportunity, even giving us cash assistance for many programs. We get cell phones and laptops, not to mention the many perks of just being an employee. If someone has mounting medical bills, he pays them. If I have a question, I email him and he responds, going up the chain until an answer is found, if unknown to him. You can say anything awful about every workplace. Yeah, I work my butt off and my work life balance sucks a little but that isnt about Live Nation. This is a great company and I will probably work here for my entire life. There are endless opportunities for advancement and they pay us handsomely.

Pros

1. Genuinely fun environment. You're working live shows at a major 16,000-capacity venue, so no two events feel the same. 2. Strong sense of teamwork; the ops crew is small and coordinated, so you actually rely on and trust the people around you. 3. Real, transferable experience: crowd management, security screening, event setup/breakdown, and real-time coordination during incidents. 4. Good exposure to how a venue actually runs, including coordination with partner staff like Legends Global. 5. Flexible seasonal structure worked well for me (if you want event-industry experience without a year-round commitment) and you can talk to management about going to other venues during off-season.

Cons

1. Seasonal and event-driven, so hours are inconsistent and concentrated around the concert season. 2. Outdoor amphitheater work is weather-dependent; shifts happen rain or shine (at my venue: Mann Center), and conditions can sometimes be tough. 3. Physically demanding with long nights, late breakdowns, and a lot of time on your feet, you've gotta really enjoy and appreciate shows. 4. Limited long-term advancement within a seasonal role.
