Vantaggi

I have had the best opportunity and success here at RKS working with such a great team and owner who continues to mentor and support myself and our team. Together we continue to build the company and our brand with our great team who i love leading. The diversity of projects is great and the opportunity for any team member to learn and grow continues to be a fantastic asset in combination with the great work that is created.

Svantaggi

Very common in creative companies are the dynamic needs of programs which can change often and you have to regroup and adjust to the new needs. This is one of the biggest challenges to designers and being able to respond quickly is key here and not all designers can handle or are comfortable with this dynamic and tend to move on. This is something that I and other key team members thrive on as this is when the biggest opportunities happen.

Thank you for your positive comments and insights. We will continue to reinvent ourselves time and time again as the challenges and opportunities increase. Design has changed a tremendous amount in the forty years I've been practicing and we're lucky to be a firm that has advanced itself through Great Team Work !

Vantaggi

Interesting projects, good range of clients Other designers were generally kind and talented Some level of independence Can choose focus area Learn a lot quickly Owner is a good salesman and can be personable (But when things go wrong, he is very difficult, near impossible to deal with. See in cons below.) I had some fun times and connected with coworkers, but overall I had a difficult time mostly from the stress given to management, which trickled down.

Svantaggi

Business preys on young designers' willingness to work hard: Low start salaries, very few bonuses given, if any Location is far from LA central. Thousand Oaks is a conservative suburb. Long hours. Did not respect need for work/life balance Lack of mentorship, due to short timelines Owner lied pretty frequently, changed things at whim, sometimes undermining work of his own team in front of clients Owner clearly prioritizes the money he makes over employees' wellbeing Experienced designers who started at RKS, quit fairly quickly. If you do decide to work here, do not stay longer than 2 years. Any more is unhealthy.

On behalf of myself, and my team, I'm disappointed to see this type of baseless remark. RKS's contributions of Psycho-Aesthetics (P/A) as an advanced Design Thinking Methodology is endorsed by Harvard, Wharton, the U.S. state Department and taught at various universities regularly; SCAD, CSULB,Pepperdine, UCLA, USC in addition to being shared globally through the Harvard Case study, the Harvard Classroom exercise, our business book in publication for over 8 years; Predictable Magic and our Method Book ; P/A which we use for client workshops and teaching. We proudly work pro-bono for and support multiple charities and have applied P/A to the creation of the first of its kind crowd funding social commerce start-up, LoanGifting.com to help 45 million people get out from under the burden of student debt. With hundreds of awards and being named on hundreds of patents, and clients who have been with us for decades, we strive for our individual team member's growth and success by providing mentorship, opportunity, full benefits, flex work hours, opportunity and have provided stock options in LoanGifting and RKS for team members.
