Pros

If you have a supervisor open and willing to nurture you, you're golden. Some supervisors truly believe in developing lower management. Even if you don't end up staying, you will have learned enough to help you grow elsewhere.

Cons

Ridiculously long hours, work/life balance is nearly non-existent. They try to squeeze too much out of a single employee instead of addressing workload disparity.

Pros

Enjoyed learning about new artists/music. Worked with some great, talented colleagues. Benefits were top notch.

Cons

This is a fear-based culture through and through. Most are in a constant state of fight or flight. I’d never experienced such a volatile environment which was largely driven from the top. Huge pay disparity between upper management and rest of staff.
