awesome. - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) SXSW

There were a lot of changes happening for the 2026 season of SXSW and everyone worked extremely hard to kick what felt like a brand new festival.

The seasonal months are too short, starting in January and ending at the end of March required too quick of on boarding and navigation.

Worked as a "seasonal" hire and had a great, if short, experience. Great coworkers and fun environment. Biggest perk is getting to attend SXSW for free, but you'll be busy during the event.

Decisions were made by the parent company to test using an agency to help with digital marketing while I was there. This was not communicated to me while hiring and seemed to come as a surprise to the team. Some of my duties where offloaded, but my manager did his best to find other areas where I could contribute.
