Vantaggi
Nice main office (upstairs expansion is a different story), free lunches weekly with lunch and learns, constant treats in kitchen (beware weight gain!), brand name
Svantaggi
A place to be if you choose work over life. Management not very knowledgable in handling clients and interior design processes - puts a strain on the entire studio. Little to no personal work/life balance, designers are way too overworked and extremely underpaid, OT compensation is a joke, low to no annual bonus, not closed during Christmas week like some other firms do. Designers have to produce 1-2+ presentations a year for the staff to lead the weekly staff meeting - basically done on the weekends in own time. High employee turnover, constant fear of job security as it seems someone is fired every month or so. Bad work culture with lots of back stabbing and gossiping! One of the partners is very condescending, he basically runs the place and everyone is constantly just trying to please him. Their method and rate of firing people is scary. Doesn't seem like they really value their employees even though they say they do. You'll most likely be let go before given an opportunity to move up internally.
