Pros
-leading company in string instrument rentals/sales/accessories -community of talent and passion -overall good colleagues and support at the entry level
Kontras
- company hires over-qualified string players for low pay. Extremely hard to advance to comfortable financial circumstances within the company -high turnaround rate - managers in cahoots- creates an toxic environment of extreme distrust -high maintenance customers with unreasonable demands -company values the bottom line over a sense of good customer service and extremely hard to constantly argue with customers over things you yourself don't agree is right -questionable database of customer credit card information and methods of pursuing debtors -head of company lives off shore and is not involved or informed on day-to day activities Honestly, any time I hear a musician in my community is interested in working there I do my due diligence to tell them how paltry circumstances are for ex colleagues still going in day in day out. Seek anything else- it is a large business for the field and easy to get a job but I guarantee there is something else out there that will support you better. I am an active string player and go out of my way to not support smaller businesses with better ethics after seeing how they are.
