Pros

Main Event has been very welcoming since the day I first walked in!! The culture and work environment are among the best I have seen. There is always something or someone to celebrate, which I think it is important to for the morale of your employees and to show them they matter. The workload is busy, but manageable. I am able to balance work and home life well. I like that everyday is never the same, keeps me on my toes!! I have great managers that I can always go to for guidance. Main Event is a fun, great place to work!!

Cons

They only con is the space issue, but we will be moving to a larger space soon!!

Pros

Although I'm fairly new, I've been given a lot of opportunity to learn from those around me. The company offers quite a bit of benefits that i'll utilize as I move forward with my career. Also, the company is growing which offers internal opportunities to promote.

Cons

As the company continues to expand, there may be some growing pains. Please continue to communicate if changes will be made during the expansion while offering internal employees the chance to move within other centers.
