Scoreboard Operator is a part-time during game only position for me. 

My typical day begins with setting up the control system for the Dorna operating system. I then ensure the operating system is working. After, I proceed to the field and check the Dorna itself for visible signs and to make sure all the signage guards are in place/not hampering sign movement. 

I then decide on a rotation schedule for the sponsorship required and record that data on a spreadsheet. I also place the start and end time for the game, each half inning and the amount of time each sign was shown on television on this sheet. 

This position has taught me the importance of timing of job tasks during television broadcasts. I typically have two minutes between each half inning of a game to rotate signage to the correct position and record all data. 

The workplace culture is top notch. I work with professionals in the MLB industry that are knowledgeable and allow me flexibility to perform my job as I feel necessary.

I enjoy this position because due to my love of baseball and the work environment.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The environment is very cool! If you love the Cardinals or even just baseball, being at the stadium is very exciting, especially on game days. The people are mostly awesome, too. The tour guides are amazing. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
As photographer, the schedule can be hectic but it’s still a fun job. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Most of the people are giving of time and knowledge. They want you to succeed and treat it as a team, as it should be treated, considering. The job is to provide a fun and unforgettable experience for the customers and working there is the same. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Depending on what you are assigned that day, you either are getting the photo cart ready, opening up the museum or getting the classrooms ready for CAP. The photographer takes guest pictures and sells them at the end of their tour. The museum sells tour/museum tickets or help customers with questions or with the Holding History feature. The CAP program is classrooms that come to the stadium for a tour and teaches correlation between baseball and school classes.

You work the gate checking bags and wanding fans as they enter. Very hot in Polyester uniform shirt and black pants. The job in the first two years is basically all about security. So if you don't want to be a security guard and work in a hostile environment due to people arguing about bringing unacceptable items in...It's not for you. Management personnel don't have a clue what is going on. They are completely disorganized and one will tell you to do one thing while another says do another. No one is ever on the same page with anything. A lot of inexperience management at the gates. 
Communication is poorly lacking. After the first two years, things get better, as you are worked into an actual usher position.

Most employees are great and become family that are fun and supportive while upper management treats you as dispensable. It is made very clear indirectly that there are a million people who would want to work for the company just because of the name but the reality is different once you do. With so many people willing to work just for the name of the company they take advantage of most mid-level and low level employees paying them low wages and restricting any benefits they can if it saves the organization a penny. Many people leave the organization because pay rates are low for career minded people who want to own a home and support a family.

What is the best part of working at the company?
All around a good place to work good people good food that environment especially below the Cardinals so I always did love baseball so I've been having a problem working with her but everything else was great even managers the team the family it was more like a family than anything so I enjoyed it pretty much every day long time I'm so scared

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
It's not really stressful you're stressful if you make it stressful but you know any job stressful if just understand but just to understand what you're doing and can keep up with the demand it won't be no stress involved

A typical day working as a surveyor includes, asking every fifth fan that walks past me if they would be interested in taking a survey. Each game worked has a different survey to give so, depending on the survey the fans will be asked questions based off of fan entertainment, media habits, customer service, and demographics. The hardest part of this job is trying to get fans to stop and take the survey. Many people shy away from them because they think there is a catch to taking it, but we are just looking for input on certain areas for improvement and how to better market to the fans. The most enjoyable part of the job is getting to be in the stadium when it's empty. The other most enjoyable part of the job is meeting fans from different parts of the country.

Very seasonal workload. duties change month to month, very repetitive each year.
Learned how to communicate with customers/general public, handle difficult people/situations, and balance long work hours and stress.
Management has been okay, but not very receptive to new ideas or change - co-workers have been one of the most enjoyable parts, as most are young and in similar situations as myself.
hard to deal with factors outside of your control and realize long term opportunities are almost non-existent.
many fringe benefits make the job worthwhile.

Responsible for selling single game, group, and season tickets on a daily basis. I answered inbound phone calls which covered questions regarding each department in the front office. I effectively up sold customers and related to each individuals needs on a personal and professional level. I am comfortable working long hours and at a high pace. I get along with others easily and consider relationship building my strongest quality. My impatience is my weakest quality because I am eager to finish a project once it has been assigned. I have a positive outlook not only on life but in the work force. I strive for more responsibility and enjoy staying busy.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of my job is meeting and talking to all the people on the phone and in person! The job is fun!!!!
