Pros

The pay is very good for the area, benefits are decent. If you are a fan you can enjoy the some of the perks that come with working here. If you like to travel you may enjoy this position more then others.

Cons

Culture is fragmented - large divide between small group at top and the rest of the company. It is a combination of the family business I enjoyed 15 years ago and has blended into a very tiered culture - directors and above leverage their positions to keep upcoming employees in their place. Their quote "Do more with less" is taken seriously. Expect to work to the breaking point, management no longer values the family work balance - job first. Since this is a family business the group that runs it "family friends" are insulated from the rest of the company. If you are not part of this group expect to have to deal with unrealistic demands. They have grown fast and have done a poor job keeping the company values that once made it a great place to work.

Pros

The role offered engaging work in the NASCAR environment, which was exciting and meaningful for those passionate about motorsports. Strong direct leadership and support during the initial period of employment. Collaborative team environment with interesting projects tied to the racing industry.

Cons

Limited job security. The company underwent multiple rounds of significant layoffs within my first year. I was laid off in the third round after being repeatedly assured during company-wide meetings that remaining employees were safe. Upper management appeared disconnected from day-to-day operations. There was a clear preference for external vendors over internal staff, even in situations where vendors required frequent correction on deliverables and client communications. Following a change in direct management, our team was deprioritized in favor of the third-party vendor, ultimately contributing to our group’s layoff. Compensation was below market rate for the responsibilities and experience required, particularly when compared to the company’s emphasis on executive travel and perks. The work environment felt increasingly corporate, with heavy focus on cost reduction and a reactive approach to performance management.
