Good organization for entry level

Pros

Feld is a good organization for recent college graduates with only one or two internships under their belt. The company tends to throw new graduates into the deep end and let them sink or swim. It's a fantastic experience for young people with a lot of energy (and with parents that can subsidize their living expenses).

Cons

Feld is NOT the company to work for if salary is important to you. The pay is not good at all. The company also does not offer any real opportunities for professional development and there is high turnover because the smart people take the experience and run to a better paying position. The commission and bonus structures is NOT competitive at all in comparison to other entertainment organizations.

Pros

The ability to travel the world some and meet people and go to interesting places you would not necessarily be able to do o your own dime.

Cons

In the department that I worked (merchandising) the cost cutting would get extreme. We worked with independent contractors that traveled with us on tour. The company was continuously cutting the deal with them that made the good contractors leave the company. Made it hard to staff a tour with quality people. When you were on break during the summer you were still "on" even if you were not receiving a paycheck.

Pros

There aren't many but the travel can be fun (when it's organised well which it rarely is)

Cons

Bullying, mismanagement, lack of care for workers, overworked crew, low pay, pettiness (like being in high school), shared hotel rooms and if you want your own room you have to pay half towards it, very few benefits, dangerous crew, promotion of unfit individuals in their roles, old outdated equipment that needs constant repair, bus breakdowns whilst travelling, show directors make very little sense and change their minds constantly, cliquey in-groups who won't show you respect, a general overall lack of respect towards others, mistreatment of local workers, the crew have a tireless and relentless need to be above other people and ego seems to drive a lot of workers in this company. If you work in entertainment, they'll likely give you a job but you will NOT want it. AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!!
