Everyone is really nice and wants to teach you/help you grow

Nothing to really think of.

Working at one of the oldest and most accomplished architectural firms.

This company is experiencing significant challenges in innovating and growing in line with the latest architectural trends due to its horizontal organizational structure. Furthermore, a group of experienced managers and principals is resistant to change in their architectural practices. This core group of personnel has not undergone significant changes or demonstrated innovation in a considerable amount of time. When new ideas are proposed, upper management often lacks patience and responds with criticism and questioning, discrediting any suggestions. The primary objective of this office is to complete projects with the smallest possible team to maximize profits. While upper management initially presents a friendly demeanor, they eventually become adversaries when their traditional methods are not implemented. This leads to exploitative work conditions, a need for constant submissiveness to higher management, backstabbing among colleagues, and a revolving door of personnel (high hiring during periods of need and high layoffs when work becomes scarce). Additionally, the office imposes unrealistic expectations, such as excessive workloads, long working hours, and open availability. The work environment is characterized by cutthroat behavior and a toxic atmosphere. Overall, if you are seeking a never-enough mentality, poor communication, inadequate planning, a constant work ethic, minimal or no mentorship, and a willingness to work long hours for a low salary, this organization may be suitable for you.
