Pros

You will be compensated fairly for your expertise. Ignoring the penalties he will throw at you, you'll still be paid well.

Cons

I saw the creative team go from 6-7 people to eventually zero. From people quitting on the spot to picking up and driving to another state over night. You will not be here longer than 2 years unless you're a remote freelancer and only talk by email. If you're experienced in the industry:: Unless you bank account has zero dollars keep looking. If you're just getting started:: Limit yourself to 1 year and remember that none of what happens matters. The company has very extended contracts and is somewhat in a monopoly so don't worry about anything going wrong. The only person who will try to stress you out is the CEO, Jeff. Also every person who left Cybis has continued in the industry in much better situations. So do not worry about leaving on a bad note. Being ex-Cybis is basically an exclusive club at this point. If you take this job please do an evaluation of yourself after 6 months if you are stressed at any point. Stress has very real consequences that people will not tell you about. I have a permanent rare condition thanks to the stress created from this environment. Take care of yourself please.

The creative team evolved from full-time to exclusively freelance/contractual relationships around the time you posted. Our creative team is larger today than ever! YES, I push hard to deliver the best for our audience. Inspiring via creative media & live event productions is both my passion and the company's mission. Not everyone is going to make the cut. And at least a few of the "exclusive club" members have returned to me to say Thank You for pushing them and propelling their career. I'm extraordinarily proud of these individuals and my role in shaking them up. : )

Pros

The only pro I can think of is that the job ended and I got far away from this shady company and the CEO Jeff.

Cons

Don't follow standard industry practices -- no OT (even for a 12+/hour day), penalties for being even a minute late, no fully paid travel days, hotel sharing, the list goes on. Freelancers are not treated with respect. There are so many great event companies out there. Stay far away from this one!! If I could give less than one star here, I would. The CEO Jeff if just plan awful to work for.
