Pros

Stress-free, the people are very friendly and happy to help.

Cons

The senior leadership for a while has had no real plan, but this has become increasingly worrisome in the current climate. Leadership has no plans to keep the business afloat, except for cutting more and more jobs. The people in the organization have no faith in the leadership because they either don't communicate or they say things which are incredibly vague or obvious lies. This hasn't stopped them from giving themselves promotions, while hundreds are being laid off with minimal comp. The ones left are abandoning ship over the pay cuts (28-50%) on already lower than average comp.

Pros

Benefits were great across the board. Any kind of help and support you'd need, they probably had it.

Cons

I was laid off for no reason after more than five years because they're "flattening layers, consolidating ownership, changing how teams are structured and ensuring that we put more energy behind specific initiatives." Or at least, that's what Saumil Mehta said. We've had record profits YOY, and quarterly earnings show nothing but growth. But perhaps that's because they keep firing people before giving them bonuses. Absolutely disgusting behavior from a company, and unfortunately, everyone saw the handwriting on the wall as soon as Saumil Mehta stepped in. Ticketmaster used to prioritize employees AND its users. Now all they see are dollar signs, and to be quite frank, I'm glad to be rid of them.
