Pros

The final product is beautiful and something you can be proud of. Pay is decent if certain people like you. Lighting dept has good management.

Cons

High stress, up to 24 hour shifts with no little to NO breaks. Breaks are very rare so pack snacks. As a driver you will be forced to break DOT laws by working long physical hours and driving afterwards. You are expected to work 12+ hours and then return a couple hours later CONSISTANTLY(ie. 5pm-5am and finish up from 8am to 4pm). They will burn you out! Unreliable employees will have you working way harder than you could imagine. The same unreliable employees remain on the schedule. Work life balance is non existent. You're ON call however sometimes your weekly schedule will be posted but subject to change. You're always on your toes with when you may or may not be working. If you want a raise or a chance to move up with the company you'd better be ready when they say jump. There are problems with any business but at Revolution they are constantly magnified and from the top on down.

Pros

lots of freedom, amazing learning opportunities, lots of interesting projects and people, spacious work environment, lots of activity, rarely ever boring

Cons

sometimes event producers had crazy ideas for custom items that were a nightmare to actually produce, with very tight deadlines. not a huge con though in retrospect- we always made it happen. sometimes upper mgmt was moody and demanding, which could be hard for sensitive people. but it was real. just humans under pressure, and comes with the territory in an event production company.

Pros

Get to make cool stuff

Cons

This company is in a state of constant crisis with inexperienced, insecure managers on a power trip. You will be expected to work late hours through the evening and night to finish projects with unrealistic deadlines, many times having to re-do or change entire projects due to poor project management. Company roles are not clearly defined, with many employees having to temporarily switch departments/roles on a daily basis to finish projects or meet deadlines. Working conditions are incredibly hazardous with no dust extraction using materials known to cause cancer. Tools are incredibly disorganized, making it hard to even find the most basic of items at any given moment. If you are not directly related to or friends with the owners / mgmt, you will not be considered for further advancement or career development at this company.
