Pros

The locations. The talented hard working in store teams who keep these store running despite this company not because of.

Cons

Event Network is an overly bloated company weighed down by layers of constantly rotating middle management who often lack the knowledge, experience, or authority to effectively support stores. They also just don't care about their employees whatsoever. They turn what could be exceptional jobs in world-class locations into frustrating, exhausting, demoralizing, toxic experiences. The company is chronically disorganized and poorly managed. Communication is inconsistent, expectations constantly change, and support is virtually nonexistent. Working here eventually takes a toll on your mental health, morale, and professional integrity. If you genuinely care about your team, you will find yourself fighting unnecessary battles simply to provide employees with the resources, staffing, and compensation they deserve. Those efforts are routinely blocked by corporate bureaucracy, only to be followed by endless lectures about the company's "culture" and "values." The disconnect is shocking. There is no consistency, accountability, or respect. Decisions are driven entirely by cutting costs, always at the expense of employees. Wages are shockingly low; turnover remains, unsurprisingly, high. There is no end to the "cons" list.

High standards for low pay.

Pros

They’ll pay you $8 below the median for your position in your area.

Cons

Goals could be met consistently and raises will be ignored. New hires will not be given grace for learning. They talk about mental health but have no interest in understanding what that means. Below median pay for micromanaged workload. Does not play to peoples strengths but rather forces them to mold into their image. No work life balance, no leniency for life events or emergencies, even if you’re meeting the minimum requirements, you’ll be berated about it. High standards for low pay.
