Sporting Kansas City

Average day was approximately four hours in length. Most of the rush was at the beginning and end of the shift. Even though it was the busiest I found that was the best time to connect with clients and make them feel like they were just not another face in the crowd. Co- workers were fine and easy to get along with and so was manegement. The hardest part of the job was standing outdoors in the heat. Seeing families enjoy each other when they would see the game and hearing the roar of the crowd when the soccer team,Sporting KC would make an advance in the game.

If my intereview process was any indictation of what it's like to work there, no thanks.  After three interviews, one of which was with the CFO, I was completely ghosted.  All my follow-up emails to the recruiter and their "Director of People Operations" were ignored.  After 4 weeks, I finally emailed the CFO who got right back letting me know the position had been filled weeks prior.  

The CFO tried to blame the Covid pandemic for their lack of response.  Please.  Covid doesn't prevent responding to follow-up emails.

I have never been treated so unprofessionally during the interview process in my life.  

Preparation is always the first thing to do. Washing hands and having my hair up is highly important. Setting up all the chips, candies, drinks, popcorn, and the pretzel breads. Then, making sure that I am ready at the cashier and communicate well with my customers. Work is between 2 to 3 hours. After it's over, cleaning and closing is a part of everyone's job. Counting all the drinks with my employees and the money will be taken care of. All the food that weren't used will be put away.

9AM-4PM, learned to work with game day activations and corporate sponsors. Worked private events when people would rent out our space and made sure they were satisfied. Worked the Big 12 Women's soccer championship. Hardest part of the job was the manual labor involved in day-to-day activities. Most enjoyable part of the job was watching Sporting Kansas City participate in the post season.

I worked at Sporting KC for 6 years in Food & Beverage.  I was a very familiar face there. After 6 years it was decided that they no longer had a place for me.  I was treated unfairly, humiliated and discriminated against due to my age. 
It's all about image there and their preference is to hire the younger generation. I  hope that no one else ever has to endure what I experienced .

What is the best part of working at the company?
Being able to enjoy the fan experience and the game! 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
On the busy days the fans can be a bit overwhelming.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Busy, speedy, fast paced, energetic. Always on your feet. Diverse workers and people that are there.

Working at No Other Pub was enjoyable most days. I learned how to work cohesively among a large serving and bartending staff. Most of the managers were open to hearing opinions and very open to change. Servers were expected to work long shifts with a very large pay off when the restaurant was busy. The restaurant could be very slow on other days.

What is the best part of working at the company?
A lot of talented employees who work hard and actually care about the players and fans.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Tons of turnover because of how unorganized the front office is. No real cohesive strategy or vision from executives/ownership. They're out of touch with how things get done.

During my time at Sporting Kansas City I received the opportunity to work game days. Every game day I took the opportunity to discuss and learn the different aspects of crowd management. The main thing I learned was to empower and educate the employees, so they could make the best decisions to keep Sporting Park safe for fans.

I would work every game day and got paid a daily rate. I was given a specific set of responsibilities and was expected to manage them without any supervision.
