Vantaggi
This is a financially strong company that's growing. It provides excellent benefits and compensation. The majority of technical staff are good to work with. Apple equipment is issued to the graphic designers. In house printing in some locations.
Svantaggi
Lower management is micromanaging, emotional, incompetent, negative, passive aggressive and weak. Marketing coordinators-no matter how junior-are over designers no matter how senior. Management does not know how to manage in general and really doesn't know how to manage designers. Management does not advocate for marketing staff. Work-life balance in marketing is bad. It's expected that marketing people will put work obligations ahead of personal commitments even if the work thing was last minute. Expect to work insanely long hours on big presentations. Travel was more than originally indicated. Graphic designer turnover is 70%. If you have a job that is decent don't let the pay and benefits that HNTB can offer change your mind. You will have to fight for personal time and will not be respected by your team.
