It's a bit unfortunate - Recensione dipendente - Conference Producer presso Beacon Events

Nothing nice to say at all

This company is a miserable place to be and so its understandable that they can't keep staff on. Management treats everyone like garbage. The boss only actually says hello to maybe 3 people in the office total - he will pass you in the kitchen or in the hall with no acknowledgement. Managers micro-manage like I've never seen before. Quotas were set in place for qualitative tasks showing that they have no actual idea of what your job is or how to do it. Managers talk to you like you're garbage - literally not a single positive comment on any of the work that I did in the year that I was there. In my interviews, they talked quite a bit about flexible working and then never actually followed through in letting me do this. In fact, there are spies in the office letting management know every time you step out the door. Someone is always reporting to the managers in Oz and the UK your every move. They tried not to pay me what was owed after I resigned - did not give me vacation days and then withheld my final pay well beyond when the contract stated they would pay. When I reached out to ask about where it was, they couldn't even be bothered to respond - though knowing full well that they owed commission and several weeks worth of salary. Avoid this place .

An events agency with an exciting in-house program of influential corporate events. Working at Beacon provides great opportunities to network and travel. The team are excellent and experienced marketing and sales professionals. Great for those who thrive when given the opportunity to work autonomously and collaborate with a team both in-person and remotely. Managers and Directors will always make time to listen, provide support and guidance and are open to new team members bringing fresh ideas.

Really nothing to report, I've worked at a few event agencies and this is a good one.
