Pros
The Austin office has no redeemable features.
Cons
The only thing consistent at the Austin office is the incompetent management. They have a pattern of alternately throwing away talented designers or gaslighting them into resignation like clockwork. The motive for this management style is unclear, and I’m baffled by how badly the place continues to function with little to no consequence from the Denver administration. Senior staff abuses their influence over entry level kids, largely by manipulating them into working over hours. They do not care about maintaining healthy boundaries and frankly would prefer you had none at all. The strangest part is that no one in management acknowledges the toxic energy in the office. There is a great deal of indifference and callousness at the top. I really would not recommend walking into this place if you’re looking for a job in Austin. There is no shortage of inspired, functional offices in town - and Norris is not one of them.
