Pros

I had a great experience working at the Fun Ones/ Big Tent Events. The management is great, my co-workers were so fun to work with, and the overall environment was very pleasant. I learned a lot during my time here, and I think those skills will transfer over to other jobs I have in the future. Also, David, the owner, was very accommodating with the requirements I had to have because I was taking an 'internship class' for credit through my university. Overall it was a great summer job, definitely recommend to anyone interested in going into sales or customer service.

Cons

The most difficult thing about working at The Fun Ones was the way we were trained. For the most part all the summer staff just learned as we went, and there are thousands of rules, conditions, and exceptions to rules to memorize. We didn't get all of those up front, so we had to just learn from our mistakes along the way, which was pretty frustrating. Also, you do have to be prepared to work with some pretty difficult clients, although that is true of any job in customer service.
