Pros

+ Career development - no matter what position you start at, you're given the chance to advance/grow, opportunity to attend career development courses + Exposure to different fields - you'll have your hand in different areas within your department and you'll interact with different departments so you can get a feel for what they do - this can allow you to hop to a different field if you want to + Atmosphere - team outings, company events, out-of-office happy hours, sports teams + Summer hours - half day Fridays during the summer + Travel for events - engaging with other employees, seeing work come to life + Cool mix of different industry events

Cons

- Corporate culture - there's a very specific track that you get placed on and it's a lot of work to move around from it, traditional mindset, the environment is stuffy - Very political - you can't speak your mind freely, superiors are always right and lower ranked employees must take blame for mistakes - Terrible work/life balance - apart from summer hours - Travel for events - very long days on the show floor

Pros

Very clear about expectations and offered good support tools like call management systems. Enjoyed working the shows.

Cons

Exceeded sales goals first year but was transferred to an adminstrative job because a more senior employee needed a job after they sold the show she worked on.

Pros

Professional Organization. Very corporate - so if you like that - it;s great. The people who go to Reed tend to stay at Reed for a long time. They very much like developing and retaining talent. No revolving door there. Many smart people

Cons

Not entrepreneurial at all. Very top heavy and slow to move to make decisions. Very coporate. if you don't liek that sort of thing. Extermeley departmentalized with many departments. it creates a trying shared resource environment where the big dogs get fed and everyone else starves.
