Pros

There are lots of great shows you can see. Great place to make contacts in the business. A good resume builder.

Cons

Long hours, insufficient pay for what you already do. Very little guidance even when you try to go to management for help and extremely poor communication from them as well. Little recognition for going above and beyond (It's almost like it is expected from everyone to get the job done by their deadlines even if you have to work until late at night or even the middle of the night for days or even a week at times). Always good for adding things to your job but never raising your pay. The company is always changing peoples job responsibilities or adding to them rather then hire more help.
