Pros
Great place to get a well-rounded experience at an architecture + design firm. Scale of projects and size of firm allows for all employees to learn a wide range of skills and contribute to a number of interesting projects.
Cons
The office culture can be very negative and uncomfortable due to the personalities of the principals. The work environment is quite stressful and sometimes chaotic. Despite being extremely hard-working, employees were regularly put down & berated by the principals during design crits rather than constructive criticism being used to advance the successful completion of the project. There is a culture of fear rather than enthusiasm, which inevitably becomes untenable for employees.
