Vantaggi
You get to see some great shows.... If you actually get any work!
Svantaggi
You have to apply to work at events using their app. They tell you when you start that they understand circumstances change and you can decline a role you applied for if it doesn't suit you... This isn't the case! They put it down as a cancellation and then give you very little shifts after that as you appear "unreliable". Meanwhile, it's ok for them to inform you a few hours before your shift is due to start that you are no longer needed... Then if you don't put down the availability for big events they grill you on why. Very few opportunities to move up in the company as there are so many people who have been there for years - these people get all the good roles at events and newer people are left standing in the background on their own for 9 hours with only a 10 min break. Any wonder the turn around rate is so high? A lot of the "more important" members of staff and those who have been there for a while actually look down on you. Very seldom you'll get a smile never mind a hello - either look straight past you or you get a blank stare. No sense of employee appreciation at all. Nearly as if theyre doing you a good turn by giving you work and you owe them.
