A drone in a cave - Project Coordinator Steelman Partners Employee Review

- great team and superiors - low micromanagement - central location

- slow transition into Revit

The work of the firm could be significant and would seem to be a sufficient lure to those seeking a challenge. The talent of the majority of the staff is second-to-none.

The firm’s management, departmental structure and workflow is entirely A-typical to the design industry. Ask a lot of questions. The vast majority of the firm will not design or develop designs. They will draft and/or simply produce documentation. The design process can be endless and obviously detrimental to the process and the staff. That same design work is done by a disproportionately small number of people. I recognized a few people that had the ability to design and lead, but those project opportunities are small. The firm largely just runs itself. Leadership is largely so disconnected from the day to day that they barely have a working understanding of the industry outside of its four walls. You will not have regular reviews or pay adjustments. You will not see daylight. The firm is outdated and an unpleasant work environment from a design standpoint.
