Pros
- Networking
- Incredible assistants (the best)
- Learning how to reach out to reach out to brands and navigate multiple schedules every day
- You get to learn how to handle negotiations, contracts, and answer emails within 0.1 seconds of receiving it (haha)
Cons
- Cares more about the revenue than generating a healthy and productive workplace
- Hundreds of emails a day. If you are on vacation for 1 week, get ready to come back to 5,000 - 10,000 in your inbox (unless you are lucky enough to get a responsible manager who actually works)
- Some managers don't set boundaries with artists. So not only does that Manager burnout, but the assistant also burns out completely.
- Some managers have favorite artists that they only like to focus on, and forget their other roster
- 24/7 job, you will never have a weekend ever again
- Not being able to enjoy a vacation or a holiday
- No diversity in the office
