Pros

You get great experience in the events, industry, you will travel to shows, great people.

Cons

Company culture has become hostile, company seems to be forcing out any legacy staff in exchange for younger labor. Most of the long term people who were positive personalities have left due to the cultural shift.

Thank you for sharing your thought and concerns. If we may clarify, Reed Exhibitions places a high value on our long term employees for their level of commitment and expertise that has been developed through the years. We work to create a culture of diversity and do not discriminate against or target employees based on age, gender, race or any other protected characteristics. As the organization changes over time, a reorganization of the workforce or a change of roles may cause some positions to change or be eliminated. In the event that this happens, we make it a priority to find other suitable roles within the company for the affected employee whenever possible. Our culture is still one of caring and respect for our employees. If you would like to continue the conversation, we would welcome the opportunity to open the lines of communication. Please feel free to email us at feedback@reedexpo.com.

Pros

Opportunity for growth within the company, great focus on not only retaining but growing inhouse talent. Tons of different sales roles to apply for. Ability to work remote full time.

Cons

Perhaps not the most competitive salary initially but can easily work your way into one.

Pros

The hybrid work model, I guess?

Cons

Do yourself a favor and filter this section to only the 1 star and 2 star reviews, because those are the only accurate reviews, at least for RX Global in the Norwalk office. At RX, you are overworked, but also underpaid and undervalued. Employees at this company are just a number. You are paid a comically low salary, no overtime, and HORRIBLE benefits, all for them to use and abuse you. You are expected to work overtime throughout the entire year. You are not only expected to travel for your own shows, but you are also required to volunteer for other shows and attend other external events throughout the year, that always fall over weekends. Have a good idea? Something that can propel the business forward? Doesn't matter! Unless you are VP level or above, your ideas are worth nothing— If anything, they're laughed at. On that note, unless you are VP level or above, not only do you have no autonomy, but you are essentially a dumping ground for admin work. And last but not least, the company culture is one consisting of gossip. Be prepared to be gaslit, micromanaged, and emotionally manipulated if you consider working here. Oh also, non-existent growth opportunities!
