Pros

- reasonable and understanding colleagues Any possible pros get overshadowed by inept management or HQ. HR seems overwhelmed or nonexistent, and willfully ignorant of basic standards. To note some management issues were more HQs fault but the manager had to shoulder the blame.

Cons

Obvious Generalities - high turnover - unable to adapt to change or good ideas - no trust in workforce - no training or growth - huge favoritism - lack of vision and ironically practicality Specifics - boss bad at delegating leadership tasks and not involved with the floor - events always planned on the spot and incompletely communicated - clients not treated equally and protocols always broken - lost so much money (and return clients) on bad customer service, and not because of the floor staff Heres the fun one The event coordinator told 6 people one thing then during setup something different. Change of sound boards (D-A,A-D), lighting layout, and entire room structure after it was built. eg. A large setup completed, just to change the orientation and in this case completely strike and setup. This was with a contracted worker that stayed well beyond their hours (and I am grateful).

Pros

In my experience this company constantly hires good people. That means good co workers. Pay is hire than other av companies.Never over worked yet a good amount of overtime.And management is supportive of the Workers.

Cons

Five star is a 3rd party vender for av planning and equipment rental in many hotels.There for you have to deal with the Hotel drama and ....at times insanity of the hotel management.
