      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great community of over 160 people to share knowledge and project experience, but only if you take the time to take advantage of it. New open office. Great perks - The adjacent office park has a free gym for employees and there's another local gym at a discount. Monthly chair massages by professionals. Fresh fruit is put out a few times a week. Vendors come at least twice a week - for a 10 at 10 on Tuesday, and Wine and Cheese Thursday evenings. Staff puts on fun events- beer night, waffle-off, weekly yoga sessions (licensed instructor on staff), craft/skill share. There's a bike committee (indoor bike parking), ARE/AxP/IDP/path to licensure committee, and multiple ways to get involved within the community.

      Cons

      Work-life balance can be tough with high volume of work, high turnover, and the firm seems to be chronically understaffed. Workload is not evenly distributed amongst all levels of the team. Burn-out and stress levels ebb and flow but can be pretty bad amongst the mid level and higher management. Retail work can be monotonous and high-demand bleeding into evenings and weekends. Some studios have a lack of training - more of a learn as you go, slip and fall and fail with a client, and retail clients have noticed the high turnover of staff and constant retraining of new staff.

      Sweat Shop. Toxic and Exploitative. Mandatory Overtime.

      Pros

      There is a difference between a job and a career. This company is a no better than a minimum wage job, but design experience helped me talk a good game into a much better paying job.

      Cons

      Toxic work culture with Power Tripping Principal Architects, mandatory overtime and overworked peers. Zero Work Life Balance and lack of empathy from upper management/principals. Pay is perhaps the lowest in the area for a company of this size, yet the company has failed to hire and train additional headcount for successful completion of projects.
