Pros

Decent pay for a part-time job.

Cons

Ever changing start/stop times. Ever changing policies and procedures. Poor communication between Corporate to Club Supervisors to Event Specialists. Too much favoritism. Not consistent in enforcing policies. Too much "bending" of the rules dependent on the employee. Too many employees don't have good work ethics. Just a paycheck for them. Supervisors don't encourage employees. Pressure to increase sales without any additional compensation. Requirement to have computer at home and to check schedule regularly without time compensation. Seem to hire just anybody without consideration into any qualifications.

Pros

Great company. Although laid off, we did get a severance package. Good PTO and flexibility.

Cons

I would suggest seeing if other positions within the company would be a good fit before laying off your good employees with no other options to keep them with the company.

Pros

There are pockets of talent and smarts on the creative side of the business, and I absolutely adored my immediate coworkers and my manager.

Cons

Senior leadership is an absolute mess. They will get us all together for these pep rallies, demand we “AMP IT UP”, then turn around and screw us mercilessly when it comes to raises, bonuses and job security. There is also quite a bit of platonic nepotism happening on the creative end of the business, with people who lend no real value to the work sitting at the very top of the creative pyramid solely because of their relationship to senior leaders. These people are being carried on the shoulders of their creative directors and ACDs, who are all criminally underpaid and under appreciated. With round after round of layoffs, no new wins, and leaders who demand high energy, long hours, and good attitudes at all times, I would strongly advise creatives to steer clear of this train wreck of an agency.
