Work Hard, Play Hard Kind of Job - Operations Manager The Howard Group Employee Review

I really enjoyed working for this company! I first started as an intern, it didn't cost anything and I learned a ton, but it wasn't paid either. But, I wasn't guaranteed a job after the internship so it wasn't the same thing as training on the job. I had to put in the effort to show I really wanted it and everything worked out - I got offered a job when I finished. It was totally above board, pretty intense, and I learned a lot. I could get a DJ job now anywhere. I really liked how hands-on the owner was - he was super supportive and really made sure I knew what I was doing. The team was OK, the other DJs were cool, MCs were incredibly talented and friendly.

The days were super long and sometimes I would work three days in a row - I loved doing it but I got pretty tired a couple of times - but those weekends did pay a lot - money was excellent - got tipped over $200 a bunch of times!

Unique opportunity, Fun events, Nice staff.

10 hours of unpaid training expected. Owner Kevin refused to negotiate. Lots of company materials are terribly organized and unprofessionally written including many typos and inconsistencies.
