Pros
Money is good, if that's your only motivation to work.
Cons
I worked in IQPC Exchange (Tampa division) for less than a year, then left. I didn't work there for long because the work environment was extremely unhealthy. There was no sense of empowerment for employees, unless you were in the sales team bringing in lots of money. There was no appropriate training, just learn as you go. My manager was not understanding or helpful when I expressed concern over lack of guidance/support in tasks, and instead placed me in probation (less than 8 months into the job) as "motivation" to work harder without consulting HR first. I was constantly scolded for not lowering expenses in each event, but I was never trained on the event budget or on negotiating costs in contracts. I addressed these concerns, but was met with "it's not difficult, just tell them to lower the cost". If you know about working with vendors and contracts, there's more to negotiating then just asking to lower costs. Also, there is no real support from HR. The HR team was personal friends with some of the managers so issues were not really addressed or corrected. They instead turned into gossip among coworkers. Overall, I do not recommend working here. If you're seeking to grow as an event/operations coordinator, this is NOT the place!
