Pros

there is a bagel shop next door

Cons

The owner looks through employee trash The pay is horrible No benefits You will never get the full amount of your expense report reimbursed The owner does not trust the skills/experience of employees so does not accept process improvements or change management ideas The owner is very belittling to lower level support staff and witnessing the degradation creates a very uncomfortable work environment for everyone. (I saw 2 admins quit in tears) The budget/numbers didn't always add up and when her assoc. would ask she would get very defensive The micromanagement is off the charts! The owner does not exercise good time management skills and things are often left to the last minute

Pros

There is lots of diversity in the position, so no day is the same. If you like association management and want to be a generalist, you'll find opportunities to hone your skills in communications, meeting management, administration, and more. There are many, many policies and procedures in place, which can be very helpful, but you have to be able to find them and know when you're going to need them because you need to hit the ground running.

Cons

The salary is very low in comparison to the expectations and responsibilities and there are no benefits. As stated by others, the owner/president has very exacting standards and "micro-management" isn't an inaccurate way to describe the work environment. Lots of last minute requirements puts the burden on the administrator to product error-free work within a very short time frame.

Pros

This is a construction association management company for several associations in the state. There are normal operational activities going on each month; database and membership to manage, association meetings, dinners, board meetings, etc. There are also events/activities happening to make it interesting; education conferences, out of town meetings, and special occasion events. The opportunity is there to put as much as you like into your job and continue to learn new things.

Cons

This is a small company doing a big job. New ideas are shot down. Liability is a major concern about everything, even someone walking across the property. The whole operation is at the whim of the owner, who can be tyranical and abusive. At times it would be considered a hostile environment. There are no benefits at all. No bonus at all. Just a paycheck.
