I set daily goals for myself and this way I can notice my progress and feel more confident. I enjoy working with this team as I know my efforts will be appreciated and my results acknowledged. The team is reliable, I can always count on their support. I like the different incentives put in place to drive performance. From simple money incentives to fully paid trips or holidays. There’s always something new to add to the week. After I finish work I feel a sense of achievement.
Cons
In marketing you have to be self-motivated, clients have different personalities.
Decent hands on experience, but only because they are so desperate to have\keep staff so you are thrown right in. Long term, this is why so many people leave I'm sure.
Cons
Just say no... not worth the stress, low pay, and poor, disorganized work environment. Nothing you do will be right unless the right people do it. Meaning the staff the CEO favors.

Hello. We are pleased to hear that you gained a positive hands-on experience. I apologize if you felt as though you were “thrown into” the position. I would welcome a call to find out how the training program and staff one-on-one’s did not support your starting experience. Event management is ranked as one of the most stressful industries in the country, so it is a necessity that professionals enjoy the fast-paced environment. While it may be chaotic at times, we strongly endorse other team members to help and support each other. In addition, we value our staff immensely and try to continually recognize them for their dedication and hard work. I can assure you that I appreciate everyone equally and my interaction with staff is often tied to the projects they are working on. There are some accounts that may require additional focus or support. I encourage you to call the office at your convenience so we may further discuss. I am available for your feedback as we are continuously examining ways that we may improve and grow.
