- Has little growth opportunities for those that are more mature (experience-wise) - Everyone and their mother will ask you to get them tickets - No comps on concert tickets for regular employees - Compensation and benefits are lower than industry standard - Very little upward mobility - Very limited schedule with late hours if you work with the teams during the season - No career development - Conservative thinking and management
