Worst Company I've Worked At

Pros

No pros at this company. Don't waste your career / life here.

Cons

I have never been treated so poorly by an employer. In particular, by the CEO and his son, who is set to take over. They both lead by fear instead of mentoring or talking to people. The above comment mentions some allegations, and I completely believe it happened 100%. Although I had a couple years experience in the field prior to joining, I was still relatively new and learning. Instead of mentoring me or teaching me if I made a mistake, the CEO and his son would berate me and threaten to fire me if it continued. How is anyone supposed to learn that way? Don't waste your time interviewing or doing business with this company. It's not worth it. There are many great architecture firms in the OC area that won't treat you like you aren't worth anything.

Pros

Honestly, can't think of any.

Cons

My peers were great, but unfortunately we were all treated extremely poorly by the father/son team (aka the name on the door). A serious lack of leadership mixed in with arrogance, rudeness, and lack of professionalism makes this a terrible place to work and do business with. There are good Principals here, but since their names will never be on the door, things will not change. I cannot recommend this place to anyone.

Pros

Company growing in a fast pace. Opportunity to grow as in the career of Architecture in the Housing Industry. Highly competitive firm.

Cons

Occasionally schedules are set to accommodated clients needs or requests which can interfere or overlap with a initial preset workload.
