Svantaggi
I worked at the firm for a period of time and gained exposure to a variety of projects, which helped me develop technical skills and learn about the workflow of architectural practice. For someone early in their career, the pace and project variety can provide a steep learning curve.
However, the work environment was difficult. Management behavior was often unprofessional, and there was a culture of backbiting and internal conflict that made the workplace feel uncomfortable and unstable. The leadership structure, including close family involvement in management decisions, sometimes created tension and a lack of clear professional boundaries.
Another challenge was the expectation of significant overtime without compensation. Long hours were often treated as normal rather than exceptional, which made maintaining work-life balance difficult.
Overall, you may gain technical experience here, but the workplace culture can come at the cost of morale and professional dignity.
