Pros
Week off between Christmas and New Years in addition to measly 2 weeks earned. 9 -5, not too much overtime. That's all that can be said. Sales are rewarded $$$ I understand but the experience is so miserable, they have to completely shut down emotionally and professionally to perform.
Cons
My understanding is that IIR was the conference industry leader. That is history. The company, as it exists today is an unhappy, uninspired division of an information services behemoth, the conference division led by a crazy, disrepectful CEO. There is virtually no support from management - half of who left or were let go in the past year. Corporate must come down heavy on crazy CEO to continually create new events with no history so they can rake $$$ to keep the ship afloat. The drab office and technology are firmly stuck in the 1990's, the carpets are ripped - it looks like a de-glorified call center -because that's essentially what it is. Dial for dollars. The truly smart employees left and started a competitive company which has developed quite a name for itself in the past few years.
