High Stress, Low Pay environment where you're expected to make work come first with absolutely no sense of job security.

Business Outlook

Pros

Resume building, experience building environment.

Cons

Company has no job security, they will cut back staff until you are doing 3 peoples jobs and not pay you any more. There is a wage freeze, so no raises. This company will burn you out as you take 10 hour days, and work some weekends, not to mention working through lunch. People are fighting to their job that needs to get done that day.

High Risk, High Reward, but not good for long term growth. Get in and get out.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great personalities in coworkers Huge networking opportunities Entertainment business has its perks Can make really good money with good flexibility if you have the right managers You work for your manager, not the company

Cons

Extremely low success rate for new AEs - 20% or less will make it 18 months Politics, smoke and mirrors surrounding who gets what accounts Serious limitations on upward mobility - turnover is just as high for managers as AEs Corporate takeover - advertising / media is a lifestyle occupation and corporate approach ruins it Management overall just doesn't have their suff together Trying to compete in digital and event media without the real tools and assets
