Pros: The best part is definitely the team I work with. Everyone is super supportive and willing to help out, which is crucial in the fast-paced event industry. I've had the chance to work on some really exciting projects and gain hands-on experience. It's a great place to build a foundation if you're looking to grow in event planning.
Cons: The workload can be intense, especially during peak seasons, which sometimes impacts work-life balance. Communication on project scope changes could also be a bit clearer from management at times. It's generally well-managed, but a bit more foresight on resource allocation would be helpful.
Advice to Management: Consider implementing more structured handover processes for projects and perhaps a clearer system for managing overtime during crunch times. Appreciate the great team culture!
