Pros

Interesting experience across different industries. Most employees are nice people, friendly and easy going. Work environment is casual. Company has nice picnics and other events, team work is encouraged, although the overly political culture can be difficult. Traveling to see wonderful and amazing trade shows is encouraged.

Cons

Compensation is low. Bonuses are not distributed fairly. Excessive amount of politics hinders progress. Senior management not open to new ideas and certain people should not hold the positions they have. The politics are unbearable at times, the truth is not respected, you are expected to follow trade show team procedures even if they make no sense. Level of frustration among workers is obvious. Difficult and unqualified people are promoted while, smart, honest people are overlooked. Ridiculous review process that takes a week to complete every six months and that has no bearing on your actual compensation increases. Pay increases are low and impossible to achieve (1-3 scale where no one receives a 3). Long hours and travel with no comp time is expected. Marketing department is comprised of young women, most of whom have no corporate experience who are either fired or promoted based on personality and popularity instead of skills. Turn over on show teams is significant. Internal promotions are rare unless you are a very political, brown noser, with no original ideas. Technology is limited to corporate restraints and they are not open to using new and emerging technology.

Not a good company to work for

Pros

Good location, nice enough people until they leave, working hours, nice office though it could be better, nothing else to add.

Cons

Poor management. Too many politics. Senior management setting bad example for new employees in terms of team spirit and work attitude. No career prospects. Extremely unrealistic expectations. Poor technology and serious lack of communication between departments and within teams. Detrimental office politics for new recruits. Big blaming culture. Senior management providing very little to zero training.
