Worst management in the history of trade shows - Anonymous employee Star Exhibits Employee Review

Terrible management and culture. The CEO and other key executives are agents of chaos, pure and simple. They say they follow an EOS structure and value openness, transparency and accountability. However, their actions convey just the opposite. Management fosters confusion, paranoia, and backstabbing -- and often participates. Communication is erratic and condescending. CEO and other executives blame everyone around them for their problems. CEO is hypersensitive and has a very fragile ego. He sees insubordination and treachery everywhere he looks and is quick to accuse people around him with little to no evidence. He goes around the industry saying what an upstanding guy he is, but he's anything but. He and other managers like to threaten and punish. The second-tier managers obey his every whim, either because they have drunk the Kool-Aid or fear for their own jobs. The whole environment is vindictive, petty, and unhealthy. This company has to have one of the highest employee turnover rates in the industry.
