Talented Workplace - Intern Architect OPN Architects Employee Review

Love the company culture. Everyone wants to help you grow and succeed. There are so many opportunities to grow professionally, with volunteering, and community engagement.

No cons. Not applicable. N/A

Great project experience, great people, great project types, Chances to author impactful projects for our local communities. A lot of really awesome people I was very thankful to get to know and work with. There are a lot of great mentors amongst the staff. The retreat is super fun. I loved the OPN seeks feedback from outside designers. The overall community of OPN is awesome and I am really proud of project work I did while at the firm.

Leadership was at times distant and didn't seem in harmony with staff. Sometimes the firm and project team structure was very hierarchical resulting in a lack of mentorship and design involvement. Overall the values of the firm varied from project to project. Bonuses and raises were pretty bad and felt independent of performance reviews or hours worked. A lot of people in senior positions near retirement age.
