Pros
Office is located in an area where there are lots of restaurant choices. Somewhat centrally located for an easy commute.
Cons
Very unprofessional, drama-inducing atmosphere. HR while having the opportunity to turn the image of this company around has not done so. They are in too tight with those who create the hostile environment and are not very objective. This company is run more like a family business than a professional engineering and architectural firm. Those in the "management" or administrative side of the business all have egos and each one feels they need an assistant. One of the "assistants" does puzzles most of the day in the lunchroom - if that gives you any indication of the expectations. Accountability is low on the professional side, projects run over budget and are not benchmarked or questioned. This is why equipment such as company trucks are not upgraded to better standards. Speaking of, look at the quality of the company vehicles, this can tell you a lot about a company. The owners and managers vehicles are newer and in better condition than those they provide to the workers who need them on a daily basis. People are shoved into spaces when new hires come on and the office itself is not updated. Carpet in a lunchroom is never a good idea and it's dirty.
