Quality People in a Company with Growing Pains - Anonymous employee KPFF Employee Review

Although there are many benefits to a flat organizational structure, this set-up makes it difficult to provide consistent service to clients and subconsultants who have had exposure to multiple offices. Even when switching from one department to the next within the same office, you will notice a clear differentiation in subcultures and service expectations. This is exacerbated by the fact that there is no clean method for providing mass information sharing throughout the company, which ultimately leads to unnecessary effort in tracking down people and data, and missed opportunities for sharing past lessons learned.
