Horrible Management and Environment - Recensione dipendente - Marketing Specialist presso Greenville Swamp Rabbits

Great management, with an ability to learn in any department.

The only con is internship is unpaid.

You gain hands on experience in a lot of different departments. These skills are easily transferable to a lot of other jobs when you inevitably leave. It’s easy to advance in this organization because everyone is either fired or they quit.

The leadership, management, and ownership structure here is deeply flawed—from the front office to ownership under Spire. Rather than leading by example, leadership relies on belittlement and criticism. Wins are rarely celebrated; instead, the focus is on what went wrong. Even on historic nights for the team, leadership finds something to tear apart. Ideas are dismissed unless they align with leadership’s own perspective, which has stifled growth and left the organization lagging behind its peers in multiple categories. Employee turnover is extremely high, preventing the team from ever developing the stability and culture needed to succeed. The hours are grueling, and the compensation does not reflect the workload. While the sports industry is known for tough schedules and modest pay, I’ve seen firsthand how other organizations mitigate these challenges by valuing and supporting their employees. That’s not the case here. The approach is to push staff until they reach a breaking point—physically, emotionally, or financially—then replace them and repeat the cycle.
