Cons
They seem to be phasing out full time event set up staff in favor of a part time heavy model. Not a lot of good communication between sales, event management and departments that actually run the events (A/V, Set-Up, Concessions, Catering, Tech Services, etc.)
An opportunity to really build a strong teamwork environment, however undermined my toxic managers. A few good people that form the core but most are looking elsewhere
Cons
Gross mismanagement and especially the night crew is one very unhappy place to be. Turnover is high, morale low and mgrs are clueless. The facility is a cash cow and all about how to wring every dollar out of the place yet employees are a commodity to extract resources from. No wonder so many employees are leaving or looking to leave. And despite their mantra, Its NOT a great place. The HR dept is also openly discriminating against veterans and those with disabilities. Stand up people. File your reports with BOLI.
