Pros

you're working for a sports team and that has its perks. off season is slow so work/life balance is comfortable. attire is business casual so the work environment is structurally relaxed.

Cons

no one gets paid but upper management (Sr. officials, Directors, VPs, & Pres of depts). owner and CEO are cheap, they're willing to let go excellent talent & replace with a new grad that they can pay less or make an intern. all the key directors and higher ups all live in the same part of town and show favoritism to certain people like they're the popular kids in high school, which is how they run the organization, like a high school.

Pros

free tickets to games, some times to concerts, make people think you are in a great company, which is not. other than this I really can't think of any others

Cons

poor compensation, low work morale, management pretend they care for employees by doing some real cheap activities, like giving you free tickets. They can't sell them anyway.

Great experience, Poor Retention of Good Employees

Pros

I learned a lot while working here, and I enjoyed the work. There are lots of perks along the way, but they come at a price - excess hours and poor pay.

Cons

The pay was sub par compared to almost any similar job in the Houston market. The owner knows that it's easy to find people to want to work for him, so I think the pay is reflected in that.
