FGM Architects Reviews

you get stuck in a corner at one position for too long doing the same thing over and over again...it's almost like a production line for architecture, but alot of firms are set up that way. if you go in expecting to start as a drafter and end up as the head of the office, it's not going to happen. have realistic expectations about getting some good design development and construction document experience while you are there and then you can move on to somewhere else.

Company culture was terrible. The management team when I was there showed minimal respect for you. From day one I always felt like an outsider and was not welcomed into the inner circle of existing employees. People were always looking over their shoulder. It felt like everyone worked out of fear. Pretty much the entire group of people I worked with are no longer even employed there. Retention was horrible. Either you jumped on the bus or it was going to roll over you. I would not recommend this firm to anyone I know. Please keep looking! Plenty of reputable, decent firms to work for in St. Louis that treat their employees with respect and encourage growth!
