GES Exposition Services Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Interviewed for position. Company is not offering a reasonable salary for the job and time commitment. Previous people in this position said the salary is the same as it was 10 years ago... one of which had no specific prior experience. I know many people who have worked for GES. General feeling is that it has been a revolving door lately. To me a risky career move for low compensation vs hours worked. "Position averages 60-70 hours per week during several months of the year." Withdrew my application. Received a pretty arrogant response/comment from recruiter. Really tainted my opinion of the company based on recruiter's comment."

"Nice place when it comes to people, except for management. The job itself gave me great opportunities to interact with all sorts of businesses and industries."

What do you like about working at GES Exposition Services?

"Prior to a consolidation the company was thriving and had a true entrepreneurial spirit which was motivating. Post consolidation the environment became stressful and conservative followed by cutting out the progressive can-do departments. It became quite unfortunate of a situation."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Stay away from the marketing department until they have a new SVP - there is no room for growth because there is no set plan in place."

What don't you like about working at GES Exposition Services?

"The EVP's were too removed from our client's needs and would often jump into a project mid-stream to stir the pot and make themselves feel accomplished. We were always more successful without some of their participation; as agreed with some of my clients. This is somewhat common with growing companies that have too much tenure, in my opinion."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Steve Moster, current CEO of GES is a wonderful person and leader at large. I would have enforced his EVP's to have a more clear vision of the organization's goals and mandated individual teams to do the same. Following this, I would also request a 360 review on my EVP 1-2 times a year. I would have also reached out to my client's for some input to the companys direction and balanced this out with the overarching revenue goals."
